Author  Topic  wingene Starting Member 1 Post Posted - 2010-05-26 : 03:22:44 Hey Because a hard disk was running out of space, I've moved the backup-folder to another disk. In the database maintenance plan of the instance I went to the tab 'Complete backup' and changed the backup directory to a dir on my G-drive. Now I see the error that you can find below in my windows application log. I don't understand why that restart-checkpoint file can be situated on the E-drive (where the backupfolder was located before), since I've changed the backupfolder to the G-drive. When I look to my backupfolder, everything seems to be OK. Do I've got to change another parameter?
