Help: Time Machine Couldn't complete the backup ... disk image is already in use

Featured Replies

It's been working fine for a solid year but all of the sudden I've gotten this message (see attached). I've restarted my computer but that didn't seem to do the trick. I've also ejected the disk once logged in. any thoughts?

I've been getting the same issue re: Backup Failed / The backup on ... is already in use 1088141855_ScreenShot2018-08-13at11_35_50PM.png.945f10e438f3d24bf81e76156cad5f9b.png

And this is the error in the Time Machine preference pane: Time Machine couldn’t complete the backup to ... / 

The backup disk image “/Volumes/Time Machine/martianbookpro.sparsebundle” is already in use.

 

Latest successful backup: Today, 8:27 PM

When I search google for 

site:lime-technology.com time machine already in use

I get similar reports from other users with no clear solution.  In my experience the most reliable fix is to reboot the unRAID machine.

Restarting AFP on unRAID should resolve it, quicker and less intrusive then a reboot.

See this post for instructions and speculation on why it’s happening:
