GUI Problem? (shows backups successful - with warnings)

Hi -

All of a sudden I'm seeing that all backups on a particular database are 'sucessful - with warnings'; yet the emails coming to me about those backups are all marked 'successful'. :shock:

Which is correct - the GUI or the email?

If the GUI, how do I ascertain what the nature of the warning is?

Thanks and regards.

  • Hi Randy,

    If you double click the entry in the activity history pane in the UI, you'll see details of that task. The log will detail the warning (typically: short passwords are / there was a network glitch but everything worked out in the end / couldn't write the copy but the main backup was successful).

  • The warning is 151, mailto error, user unknown.
    However, this makes no sense as I am receiving emails from this server; in fact just to be sure I opened up options and sent a test email. Rec'd it a few minutes later.

  • I figured it out; some of the addresses were using expired aliases
