If an entry is missing from the database, the Validate Datasets and File Stores dialog displays the following warning:

You can click OK to proceed with a back up or restore the data.

  4. Re-add the file to the vault using the corresponding Vault Add-in for the file type.

If either the warning or the error has not been seen on prior back ups, restore the most recent backup.
