SMS.0806 Failed to Synchronize Partition to Target Server

Symptom

During an incremental synchronization, the message "SMS.0806 Failed to synchronize partition XXX to target server XXX" was displayed.

Possible Causes

The possible causes are as follows:

1. The network between the source server and the target server is disconnected.
2. There is not enough space on the paired disk partition of the target server.
3. The paired disk of the target server is detached.

Solution

1. Check whether the fault is caused by a network disconnection. If it is, rectify the network fault by referring to SMS.380x SSH Connection Failures
2. Check whether there is enough space on the target partition. If there is not enough space, delete any unnecessary files from the partition on the target server or the source server to release enough space, and try again.
3. Check whether the paired target server disk is detached. If it is, attach the disk to the target server. Then log in to the SMS console, choose Servers in the navigation pane on the left, locate the source server, and click Start in the Operation column.
