Description of Issue
I found this morning that I had another “problem with your database” message. I needed to reboot after I got home from work but ended up needed a database restore.
The “There is a problem with your database” message has been getting more frequent. The only option given is to restore from backup, but I find that half the time, all it takes is a reboot of the Nucleus+ from the back of the unit for my database and library to come up fine. The other half I need to restore from backup after a full reboot.
Since the 1.8 update that forced the database to be analyzed before every backup and catch any instance of corruption (thus preventing a corrupted database from being backed up), I have probably had the “database problem” message about 12-20 times? Your records will likely be a better record than my memory. I back up the database every night at 2am with it saving 30 backups. I then backup that backup to a different drive every week or so. It used to be every morning, but I started keeping my second drive off-site and bring it home once a week. I don’t see a pattern with that and the “database problem” message.
I have two questions for @support that are related:
-
Can you examine to see why I am getting the “problem with your database” so frequently–or at least today?
-
If the database is now prevented from backing up with corruption, why can I back up every night and a restart will suffice half the time?
Thanks. I am pretty tired of waking up each morning to see if my database has crashed or for it to crash in the middle of the day–nowhere near the time of a backup being done. I just never know.
