604.0. "Transfer fails to backup document saveset" by NCBOOT::HARRIS (oooppps) Wed Apr 29 1992 22:24

    hi -
    
    i'm transferring a bunch (70+) of users (1 at a time!). using ALL-IN-1
    2.4.  i got the folowing error while trying to to the PAT on 1 of the
    accounts.  the user is not useing the account, it did not get archived.
    i checked STARS and the 2.4 conf, but didn't see anything on this
    error. naturally, no probelms with anyother accounts. there are less
    than 300 documents (shared and private).
    		TIA - ann

    Hi there!
    
    	You seem to have covered most of the problems I was going to
    	suggest. Did you run a PAT on this user that failed for a
    	different reason than the one you've given? Subsequent PATs
    	would fail with this error message because the docs will have
    	been archived by the first run.... But you say there is nothing
    	archived.... Well are you sure that there actually ARE documents
    	that are shared for this user? If the user only had private docs
    	that would cause this error too. But you say there are shared
    	docs...
    
    	Do a show header on an unarchived, shared doc, then edit
    	mua_pat_archive.scp and put in a trace and re-PAT it. If you
    	can't see what is wrong, then post a *POINTER* (not the log) to the
    	log I'll take a look and see if I can see anything. (Although I'm
    	out next week).
    
    Regards,
    Paul

    well, looks like this is solved (at least i haven't gotten an error
    yet!).  seems that if the UNREAD_MAIL_COUNT is off you also get this
    message.
