Unable to perform database backup using sybase central

Error:

The storage control block address is invalid unable to determine disk freespace
  • SQL Anywhere 9
  • Sybase Central 4.3
  • Windows XP

How to resolve this problem?

Button to choose dir is not activated.

I tried also type local and network dir, both the same result (error above).

Solution

  • Problem was because, I typed wrong DIR path.

    I tried to perform buckup not directly on server, but by the local workstation.

    I typed my local machine DIR path and network DIR path.

    However correct DIR path, was the local SERVER machine DIR path.
