Backup Error: sql-dom sql state 4200

  • When trying to backup a sql2000 database I receive the following error:

    "Microsoft SQL-DOM (odbc sqlstate: 42000)

    The Volume on device xxx e:\backupfilename.bak belongs to a different media set.

    Backup or restore operation terminating abnormally."

    Thanks for any help,

    Jim

  • Can you recreate your backup device and retry to backup your database? What is your SQL Server version and service pack?

  • Do you have multiple backup devices listed? this sounds like a striping issue. Also be sure you have disk space if this is a disk backup.

  • Thanks all. The issue was resolved by running a backup with the FORMAT option.Jim
