Hello, Jörn!

This message occurs when insufficient space for backup or restore found
and it probably asks for additional volume.
In your case the reason can be such error with backup - please check
free place at backups location, and there is no place,
you have corrupted backup.

If you have problem with restoring GBK/FBK and have no original database
or another good backup,
take a look on IBBackupSurgeon tool - www.ibbackupsurgeon.com. It can help.

And do not hesitate to contact us at support@... - we don't ask
money for advice and investigation of problem.
Only for result.

Sincerely,
Alexey Kovyazin
