Cause

Invalid FSA Volume policy or SQL connections locking the volume or volume policy tables preventing updates

Resolution

1. The invalid Volume policy data as indicated in Dtrace exception errors needs to corrected.
2. The volume policy has to be properly saved, or the volume affected needs to be linked to another volume policy.
3. Ensure that SQL connections are not blocking any updates and no SQL Studio Management sessions are left open with connections to the EnterpriseVaultDirectory Database.
4. Close and re-open the volume policy linked to the Folder Target and Volume that is shown in the Dtrace.
5. Closing and re-opening the volume policy should ensure that it is saved to the database again, and you should be able to add a new folder target without error.
