Message Text

A nonrecoverable I/O error occurred on file “%ls:” %ls.

This is a general error that occurs when the operating system raises an error while performing

I/O during a backup or restore operation. In most situations the cause is simply that the

backup medium is full.

The error may include additional text from the operating system indicating that the disk is full.

When performing a backup or restore operation with third-party backup software an additional

message may occur indicating that the backup failed. The message may look similar to the

following text:

This is an indication that the backup software requested a termination of the backup or restore

operation.
