Exchange backups not working automatically
Each night when the Acronis Exchange backup runs a pop-up box appears that says:
Please connect console to {servername} and choose Press Retry when ready or press Cancel to cancel the operation.
After pressing retry and cancel a few times the backup will begin.
I have to do this every time for the backup to run. These are set to run late at night when I should be in bed!!!!
It's backing up to an external drive that's connected via USB to the server.
This is on Acronis for Ms Exchange Build 239 (upgraded from 230 to try to fix this). Windows Server 2008 Standard SP2 w/Exchange 2007 SP1
I have attached the Acronis logs gathered by the Acronis info utility.
Please Help!!!

Thank you for the reply. It has ran out of space at times if I haven't cleared out previous backups. However it is still giving the message even with the space available to it.
I have attached the system information and the entire contents of the Program Data\Acronis folder.
At this time of day I am unable to attempt the backup to reproduce the error for the windows event viewer. It should be noted this error only occurs at a scheduled time. If I manually run the backup, I do not get this error.

Here is the event viewer message when the automated process tries to run.
