File 'filespace namepath-namefile-name' is encrypted by Microsoft EFS and contains at least one
sparse data stream. The operating system does not support restore
for this file so it is not backed up or restored.
Explanation
An error in the Microsoft Windows API
prevents successful restore of files that meet the following conditions:
- The file is encrypted by Microsoft Encrypting File System (EFS) at the time it was backed
up
- The file includes at least one data stream (alternate "named"
stream or unnamed stream) that is sparse
- The operating system is any edition of Microsoft XP, Microsoft Windows Server 2003, or Microsoft Windows Server
2003 R2
Because the file cannot be restored, IBM® Tivoli® Storage Manager does not back it up. The problem is documented
by Microsoft at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2525290.
System action
The file is not backed up or restored. Processing
continues with the next object or ends if there are no further objects.
User response
If this message is issued during a backup operation,
you can do the following:
- Disable EFS encryption for the file so that it can be backed up.
- If a backup copy of the file is not necessary, you can exclude
it from backup.
