There is not enough space in the backup destination error message

Thread needs solution

I am getting this error when one of my servers attempts to take a backup. Other servers are backing up fine. The error is: "There is not enough space in the backup destination" There is a little over 1 TB free on my storage node.

I've attached pics of the error and of the free space on the storage node.

Hello Steve,

I do want to assist you and ensure you get the best assistance available.  

There can be several reasons of the encountered issue. 

1) The vault has been created improperly. I suggest you to recreate the vault. If you want to save the archives created previously, please update the program to build # 11345. You can learn more on how to download the latest build in this article. Update the components and see the following articles on how to do it:

Importing archives and backups 

Exporting archives and backups 

2) The issue can be caused by files system errors or bad blocks. 

Could you please check the disks for errors?
- Go to the Command Prompt (Start -> Run -> cmd)
- Enter the command: "chkdsk DISK: /r"
where DISK is the partition letter you need to check. Please note, that
checking the C: drive may require you to reboot the machine.
After that please see if the issue remains. If the issue remains, please download Acronis Report utility available here and run it on the computer where the vault is located (or attach the storage locally), create a report and attach the file to your next post. Please compress the Acronis Report output file into an archive (e.g. with WinZip) and attach to your message by browsing for the archive.

Please let us know the results, we should be sure that the program runs flawless for you.

Please do not hesitate to ask additional questions if the provided information is not clear or you need a further assistance. 

Thank you.
