  • Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 (builds 32256, 32266, 32308)

Symptoms

  1. You are performing a backup of several machines with automatic replication / cleanup in an unmanaged centralized vault;
  2. The backup completes successfully but the replication or retention rules fail with an error similar to:

    Command 'Replicating backups/cleaning up archives (1st location)' has failed.

    Message: Failed to find the backup.
    --------------------

  3. The activity task fails due to not being able to open archive of a different machine (not of the machine that is currently being backed up);
  4. Refresh on the corresponding vault resolves the issue only temporaly. After some time the issue is reproduced again.

Cause

There are numerous broken (non-existing) links to .TIB files in the meta data on the vault because of manual archive deletions, incorrect backup plan deployments or other factors.

This meta corruption can be only temporarily fixed by manually refreshing the vault location.

Solution

The issue is fixed starting with the build number 37608 of this product. Please update to the latest build.
