FSRM_E_CLASSIFICATION_SCAN_FAIL

FSRM_E_CLASSIFICATION_SCAN_FAIL is a run-level failure indicating that FSRM could not complete classification on any volume in the requested scope. It is stronger than a partial-scan warning, where at least one volume still yields usable results.

Find the common failure point

  • Review the classification report and application log for the first failing volume and module.
  • Check service availability, scope roots, volume state, and module initialization before investigating individual files.
  • Verify that the run is no longer active before starting a replacement classification request.

When all volumes fail together, a shared dependency is more likely than unrelated file errors. Typical shared layers include the classification service, a module used by all rules, synchronized property definitions, or a changed service account. Preserve the original report because repeatedly starting the same run can replace useful timing and module diagnostics without changing the underlying configuration.
