Backups fail with error 0xe000fe09 - The directory is invalid
Hi everyone,
We have set up a new terminal server with the software from NComputing "vSpace Server", based on Windows Server 2008 R2 with Remote Desktop Services role installed and the apropriate RDP licensing. It's a physical machine, not a virtual one.
We have Backup Exec 3600 R2 appliance for backups (Backup Exec 2012 fully patched) and I have set up an ordinary backup job for this server, backup to deduplication storage and duplicate the backup set to a second appliance, located offsite.
There is a scheduled script to logoff all users 15 minutes before the backup job starts at 23:00, to minimise the workload of the server and the open files.
The job runs with the Backup Exec system logon account which is a domain admin account with full access everywhere. No NTFS permissions have been altered.
The job summary is this:
And the selection list is this:
And the job log in TXT is as the following (but the paths which could not be accessed are always different):

Do you have any idea what the problem could be???
