When attempting VA based backups, they fail with the following error:
"Error : 2712 - can't create the directory cifs"
One possible cause for this is that the newly deployed VA's do not have access to the network containing the repository.
There are a number of possible solutions:
1) Add a new NIC to the hosts where the VA's reside, allowing access to the network containing the repository.
2) Create a new repository local to the vRanger server if space allows, and backup to there.
3) Add a second NIC to the Repository machine allowing access to the current VA network.
