I have a process that creates folders in a SharePoint document library using the SPFolderCollection.Add method.
Sporadically, the Add method fails with a:
Exception ('COMException') message:
Cannot create folder "sites/GTS01/GTSArchive/4F2311C51CD501CEE10080000A144153".

Exception ('SPException') message:

at Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFolderCollection.AddInternal(String strUrl, Int32 userId)
At this point, I cannot claim that the folder doesn't already exist in the document library - it shouldn't exist, but I can't be confident of that at this point.
I've requested the ULS log at the time of the error.
I am also requesting information on any scheduled backup routines or content crawling, thinking it may block additions to the library.
Any other steps I could take?
