A few details on the nature of the backup job and the specific error message would help.
The original job:
Backup Job Name: BackupAll Backup Job Type: Incremental Protocol: local Backup Source: [volume:data]/ Backup Destination: [USB_HDD_1]/ Backup Start Time: Wed Oct 13 2021 3:16:59 PM Backup Finish Time: Wed Oct 13 2021 3:17:07 PM Backup Status: Fail: Cancelled by user.
The Error message in the log was that it could not copy file, then the long file name, then the "error:(cannot allocate memory)!"
(I erased the log when I deleted the job to try another method. My mistake. I am trying to recreate.)
I broke the job up to copy individual shares and it worked except for the share with the error message. That one said it was cancelled by user and there was no log. (Not incremental - first time through.)
Cancelled backup job job_001. -------- Backup Job Information -------- Backup Job Name: job_001 Backup Job Type: Full Protocol: local Backup Source: [home:kandslen]/ Backup Destination: [USB Front]/ Backup Start Time: Fri Oct 15 2021 1:05:02 AM Backup Finish Time: Fri Oct 15 2021 1:05:08 AM Backup Status: Fail: Cancelled by user.
How is the USB drive formatted?
