Backup Error - tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

[shankarnewton]

Hi All,

My backup didn't happen for long time. When I manually initiated backup today afternoon, the backup failed with following Error over Email:

Can't dump database admin_default
mysqldump: Can't create/write to file '/backup/tmp.GJQaIPmN2m/db/admin_default/admin_default.mysql.sql' (Errcode: 2 - No such file or directory)

backup.log under /var/log/vesta shows following:

-- SUMMARY --
tar: /backup/admin.2019-09-22_18-30-24.tar: Wrote only 8192 of 10240 bytes

My Environment Information:

Anyone already encountered such issues?
