We are receiving errors during our backups - [Can not write data. The semaphore timeout period has expired.]

We are currently using ViceVersa Pro 2.5, build 2511. The program is running on either Windows 2003 Server or Windows 2008 Server (happens on both systems) and is connecting to a drive that is hosted from a SUSE 10.1 Linux server, accessed through MS Services for Unix/NFS.

The errors happen on different sized files of different types. What can we do to clear this error and stabilise our backups?

Thank you,
Amy Sampson

Hello,

This is likely to be a hardware issue, the network cable or the disk itself.

However try this first:
- in the ViceVersa profile settings -> performance, enable the option "Use Windows native file copy". Is the issue still present when copying files with this option?

Also , this answer for Microsoft contains useful trouble-shooting information: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/itprovistanetworking/thread/c3fc9f5d-c073-4a9f-bb3d-b7bb8f893f78/

thanks
