Yes - it normally accompanies manual deletion of savesets from a disk backup 
unit.

I first noticed it in 7.5, got EMC to release a patch for it, and had mentioned 
it on the list/blogged about it:

It's quite an annoying problem, and since on an average day I get quite a few 
hits on the relatively old article, it's something that still hits a lot of 
sites as they go to version(s) exhibiting the problem.

Cheers,

Preston.
