FS196-W Unable to create the log file "`filename`".

The Fileshare Server was unable to create the new recovery log file after backing up the one that was in use. As the Fileshare Server is already operational, it does not close down. The Fileshare Server tries to re-open the old recovery log file and tries to continue writing recovery records to it. This message indicates that overall, the backing up of the recovery log file failed. The Fileshare Server is still operational.

Resolution:

Ensure that the log filename contains a valid directory and filename. The Fileshare Server requires read-write access to the log file and permissions to create the file if necessary. Ensure that, if the file of this name already exists, it is not being used by another process.
