We have recently confirmed a critical issue related to scheduled AhsayOBM/AhsayACB File Backup Sets running on Windows.
Due to a bug with the backup API calls in v8.5.2.33 - 8.5.2.88, this resulted in files/folders not been backed up during a scheduled backup job, if the “Local System account” account did not have read permission for these files/folders. Any files/folders that were backed up in previous backup jobs would be moved to retention area, where they will be permanently removed after they exceed the retention policy setting for the backup set.
Although this issue does not affect backup jobs started manually from the AhsayOBM/AhsayACB UI, if these files/folders are successfully backed up on a manual backup job. Any subsequent schedule backup job will move these files to retention area. Where they will be permanently removed after they exceed the retention policy setting for the backup set.
