Hi

I have an issue with my weekly backups made to a Synology NAS. They have started to fail with:
Code:
 job failed with err -61 - No data available

I'm running Virtual Environment 6.4-14 on a NUC with a Samsung SSD 970 EVO 500GB:

I also ran a bad block check the other day:
Code:
root@nuc:~# badblocks -v /dev/nvme0n1 > ~/bad_sectors.txt
Checking blocks 0 to 488386583
Checking for bad blocks (read-only test):
done                                                 
Pass completed, 522 bad blocks found. (522/0/0 errors)

From what I understand 522 is nothing to worry about on a SSD? What are my options here to get backup working again?
 
Hi,

did all or only some of the backups fail with this error? Do you see errors in your syslog?
 
I run weekly backups. Last succesfull was May 10th. Since then it has failed twice. It has been failing on and off a couple of times this year as well.

This is the log:

From what I can gather it is most likely the SSD :(. There might be a slight possibility that it is an issue with writing to the NAS. You could try to backup to a different local disk and see if this fixes the issue. If it doesn't the SSD would be my main suspect.

I tried a backup directly to SSD with no issues. I then restarted NAS and attempted again. This time backup was also succesfull. From that I would presume a software issue with NAS. Either way thanks for the input as it pushed me in the right direction. The error message made me think it was a local issue.
