# E2009 — Volume operation rejected (E\_STORAGE\_AUTO\_TOP\_UP\_INVALID)

| Property | Value |
| - | - |
| **Code** | `2009` |
| **Slug** | `E2009` |
| **Category** | `storage` (Storage) |
| **CIP** | CIP-9 |

## What happened

Volume operation rejected (E\_STORAGE\_AUTO\_TOP\_UP\_INVALID): \{detail}.

This is the receipt's `what` text, produced by the node's `ExecutionError::RasVolume`. Placeholders in braces are filled from the failing transaction.

## Why it happened

The node rejected the operation with `E2009` (category `storage`, Storage). The receipt's `why` field carries the specific cause and `context` carries structured details, such as the values that filled the placeholders above.

The normative rule is in CIP-9.

## How to fix

A custom auto top-up needs a non-zero cap and target\_epochs of at least 1. Use the Off setting to stop wallet draws.

## Receipt example

```json theme={null}
