Hi,

I am trying to backup to azure and the process fails midway.

I found following error in the logs. Any help in fixing this is appreciated.

```auto
{"action":"create_backup","level":"error","msg":"upload stat: stat /var/lib/weaviate/document/EHWvarFgAydV/lsm/property__id/primary: no such file or directory: \u003cnil\u003e","time":"2024-01-09T16:50:12Z"}

```

Thanks

Hi @vamsi !! Welcome back 🙂

Is that a single node cluster using a filesystem backup module?

Hi @DudaNogueira

It’s a 3 node cluster using azure storage backup module
