Backing up using Differential in Microsoft SQL server management studio 2016, but see error.

[joshlabtech]

Hi Community,

I'm trying to do differential back up in Microsoft SQL server management studio 2016, and it seems to be backed up properly when I see the folder as shown below. Date 18-20 July are all done during the differential backup schedules.

.

But I still see errors in my Jobs History in my SQL server.

Can please advise what does this means and why can I check to resolve this?

Thank you!

Regards,

Josh.

The job failed, maybe not the backup. You need to expand the job failure with the + sign and see what the messages are in that entry. There could have been more in the Maintenance Plan that failed but the backup succeeded.

@joshlabtech , the ist the message for the job; useless. Lookup the error message for "job step 1".
