<event id="20" level="4" module="100" code="103" time="1313473175" message="Failed to perform the backup operation." />


ANSWER

This error  is caused by file system or disk corruption.

 

To resolve this run chkdsk /r /f  on each drive being backed up (requires reboot).

 

 

If the issue is unresolved: -

1) back up each partition individually to isolate the source of the problem
2) run Acronis Info tool (instructions here - http://community.kaseya.com/kb/w/wiki/how-do-i-run-the-acronis-info-report-utility.aspx) - submit the output to Kaseya support along with the log sample
