Problem

I have a network share mapped to a drive letter on my Windows machine. I try to create a Backup Repository in a local folder that points to my network drive.
Backup Repository creation fails with an error.

Solution

Creating Backup Repositories on network drives is not supported. Create your Backup Repository directly on the share using the CIFS integration option.
