Hello 

 I receive a failure when I want to change the location of DR backup from local drive to network share:

“failed to set [backup metadata folder] for DR backup with error [create directory failed ]”

what can be the solution for that ?

The library have all the permissions.

@ariel_b ,

Kindly create new directory on network share and share the folder. Copy the location and use the same for DR destination and check.

Hello @ariel_b 

Are you able to access the network share from the commserve itself using the same credentials?
