ISSUE: Backup Source cannot include the location for storing the system backup (MS Windows System backup)
Article ID:
5310
Reviewed:

Product Version:
AhsayACB / AhsayOBM: 7.3.0.0 or above
OS: Windows Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10
Problem Description
When creating a MS Windows System backup set, the following error message is displayed on the backup client interface:
Backup Source cannot include the location for storing the system backup
Cause
The message suggests the temporary storage location is invalid.
It is a requirement of Windows Backup Feature (WBAdmin.exe) that the volume selected for storage must be different than the volume selected for backup. In other words, you cannot configure a backup of C:\ and have the temporary storage location configured to C:\ as well.
Resolution
To resolve the issue, select another volume for the temporary location of the system backup.
