1199 - Interpreting your log messages

Due to space constraints, some of your logs will contain truncated messages whose meaning is not immediately clear. Please consult the guide below to help you interpret your log messages.

"Metadata patched"

Example from logs:

INFO  : 18:42:54 Metadata patched C:\ProgramData\Redstor Backup Pro\Backup Client ESE\data\history\xxxxxxxxxxxx\meta\backupset.xml
INFO  : 18:42:54 Metadata patched C:\ProgramData\Redstor Backup Pro\Backup Client ESE\data\history\xxxxxxxxxxxx\meta\Credentials.store
INFO  : 18:42:54 Metadata patched C:\ProgramData\Redstor Backup Pro\Backup Client ESE\data\history\xxxxxxxxxxxxx\xxxxxxx\meta\Environment.json

The contents of your file(s) have not changed, only attributes such as Last Modified or Change Time, and as such only these have been backed up. This should not cause any problems.

"Skipping ownership and permissions"

Example from logs:

WARN  : 02:17:18 Skipping ownership and permissions on '/DEVLogs/NODE0000/LOGSTREAM0000/NODE0000/LOGSTREAM0000/S0133746.LOG'
ERROR : 02:17:18 Failed to add (/DEVLogs/NODE0000/LOGSTREAM0000/NODE0000/LOGSTREAM0000/S0133746.LOG (No such file or directory))

A file or folder was deleted between the time of the agent building the list of all files, and the time of traversing (processing) the files. As a result, the agent is attempting to obtain the ownership and permissions metadata on a deleted file. Please check your service_errors.log.
