BA4021: Unable to write Zip central directory. The backup destination may run out of space¶
| Error code | Product | Applies to |
|---|---|---|
| BA4021 | BackupAssist | BackupAssist v5.4.6 and later. |
Description¶
This error is generated when a BackupAssist File Archiving backup job calculates that the Zip central directory will not fit in the amount of free space on the backup destination.
Resolution¶
There may be insufficient space in the location you are trying to back up to. If there is not enough space, you could delete some files at the backup destination to make room for this backup and future backups. Alternatively, you may need to use a larger destination. If you use a tape media or RDX disks, you might want to split the backup into two separate jobs.
