| Hi,I am getting following error while I try to backup the DB in a scheduled job. There other DB backuped successfully in same job in different steps.The backup data in 'G:\*********.bak' is incorrectly formatted. Backups cannot be appended, but existing backup sets may still be usable. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3266) BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3013). The step failed.thanks in advance. |

| Disk full?Sounds like you are appending multiple backups to a single file. It would be safer to use separate files for each backup - e.g. incorporating the Date/Time into the name of the backup file.Kristen |
