[81:52] Not a valid mount point => aborting.

[Critical] From: VBDA@winsrv01 "winsrv01 [/G]"  Time: 5/26/2014 9:28:58 AM
[81:52]  /G
                Not a valid mount point => aborting.

An attempt to backup the specific drive (G:/ in this example) connected to the DP client machine was failed and no data will be backed up by DP.

In Windows :

  • Login to the windows client machine and check if the drive is accessible.
  • Check if the drive is local drive or zoned drive and the zoning still exists.

In case the zoned drive no more exists, you can exclude it in the backup spec. 

If the drive exists on the server and it is accessible, try deleting the \tmp folder on the windows client machine and rerun the backup.

Default path to tmp folder for windows 2003/NT/XP:
C:\Program Files\OmniBack\tmp

Default path to tmp for windows 2008:
"C:\ProgramData\Omniback\tmp"

Hope this helps!!!
