BA7011: Cloud backup chunk identification error

Error code Product Applies to
BA7011 BackupAssist ER BackupAssist ER v1 and later

Description

This error occurs due to a fault in the BackupAssist ER Cloud Backup Garbage Collector process. The Garbage Collector cleans up chunks from old backups that don’t belong to any of the current backups in the cloud container. It may identify a chunk as deletable when it belongs to a valid current backup.

As a safety net, BackupAssist ER compares the Garbage Collector delete-list with the list of chunks backed up by the current backup. If there is an overlap, BackupAssist ER overrides the Garbage Collector decision to delete the chunk in question, and raises this warning in the backup report. For diagnostic purposes, the event is also logged in the diagnostic logs.
