You are performing a Lan-free(HotAdd) backup and you have a VMware Enterprise or Enterprise plus and the datastore block size is large enough to allow the HotAdd to work.
VMware HotAdd process has a limitation to the size of the thin disk that HotAdd can be performed with and that is up to 1.97TB disk. Any disk larger than a 1.97TB disk will receive a 3201 can't open error.
If you have a VM disk configured with a size greater than 1.97TB please change it's size to 1.97TB and than you will be able to perform Lan-free(HotAdd) backups.
