  1. Product Version:
    2. ServosityOBS: All
    OS: All platforms
  2. Problem Description:
    3. When performing a backup of any type, the following informative message is received in the backup report:


    Backup Logs
     No.  Type  Timestamp  Backup Logs
    1 Info YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm Start [ All platforms (Test), ServosityPro 5.x.x.x ]
    2 Info YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm Start running pre-commands
    3 ... ... ...
    *  Info  YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm No checksum file found. File "Directory_Path\File" is being backed up in its entirety along
    with its checksum file
  3. Cause:
    4. The message suggests that the checksum file of the corresponding data file on the ServosityOBS server is missing or corrupted.
  4. Resolution:
    5. You can safely ignore the message, as the checksum file along with the data file would be uploaded again when the current backup job is performed.

    Please also verify if there are hardware or I/O issues with the corresponding User Home partition.

    Windows:
    For ServosityOBS running on Windows, please verify under [Control Panel] -> [Administrative Tools] -> [Event Viewer] if an error could be found. If a disk error is found, please perform a checkdisk on the corresponding partition by entering the command "chkdsk /f" in command prompt.

    Linux/Unix:
    For ServosityOBS running on Linux/Unix, depending on the distribution, you could try entering the command "cat /var/log/messages" and verify if an error could be found. If a disk error is found, please perform a checkdisk on the corresponding partition by enter the command "/sbin/fsck" and "/sbin/e2fsck" (with the partition un-mount).
