FSregback
Error Couldn't find ebc.dat Reason Sregback uses ntcpio to recover the ebc.dat file. This file contains details of the registry keys backed up. This error will occur if ntcpio reports that it was successful, but the ebc.dat file was not recovered. Solution Check that the tape contains a valid registry backup and is not corrupt.
Error Error: <directory> directory already exists Reason In order to perform a registry backup or restore a temporary directory must be created. FSregback will fail if this directory already exists. Solution It is likely that the directory is left over from a previous registry backup or recovery. If this is the case, remove the directory.
Error Failed to backup profiles Reason Once the profile list has been determined, FSregback attempts to backup the profile directories using ntcpio. This error occurs if ntcpio fails to backup these directories. Solution Check for other error messages from the ntcpio command.
Error Failed to backup registry Reason Once the registry has been dumped to file, FSregback attempts to back these files up using ntcpio. This error occurs if ntcpio fails to backup these files. Solution Check for other error messages from the ntcpio command.
Error Failed to output profiles Reason FSregback calls regback to output the list of profiles to be backed up. This error occurs if regback returns a non zero exit status. Solution Check for other error messages from the regback command.
Error Failed to output registry Reason FSregback calls regback to output the registry. This error occurs if regback returns a non zero exit status. Solution Check for other error messages from the regback command.
Error Failed to recover profile(s) Reason For a profile recovery, the data is recovered using ntcpio. If ntcpio fails for any reason, this error will occur. Solution It is possible that the data is corrupt. Check for ntcpio error messages.
Error Failed to recover registry Reason For a registry restore, the data must first be extracted from tape and saved to file. This is done by the ntcpio command. Also regback is used to restore the keys from file. If ntcpio or regback fail for any reason, this error will occur. Solution It is possible that the data is corrupt. Check for ntcpio and regback error messages.
Error Failed to recover registry header Reason For an index to be generated, FSregback uses ntcpio to recover the ebc.dat file. This file contains details of the registry keys backed up. This error will occur if ntcpio failed to recover this file. Solution It is possible that the data is corrupt. Check for ntcpio and regback error messages.
Error Unable to change to <directory> Reason To perform a registry backup or restore FSregback must change to <directory>. Failure to change to this directory will result in this error. Solution Check that the directory exists and is accessible
