Title
Segment position too high for Id XX -
Description
The nvmeddbcheck –check command or Netvault Database backup returns messages of the form:
"Segment position too high for Id XX" -
Cause
During Media Database check operations, the position field of a backup job’s segment record is compared against the segments count field of the corresponding media record. Inconsistencies can occasionally be found when a backup segment’s position field has a higher segment record than the media record indicates is possible. For example a segment record indicating that a segment is the 16th on a piece of media and a corresponding media record indicating that this media contains less than 16 segments.
This can occur in certain failed backup conditions where a segment record is erroneously maintained in the database when it should have been discarded.
