Resolution
Find the VM in the VC console
Go to VM settings (Edit Settings)
Select Disk being backed up
Look at the “Disk File" Path and check for any special characters per the path in the error
User will need to resolve this file name as the vRanger repository file names will not accept special characters
As in example above:
...132806_F_1_\'MEDRADONCDBS01_vmdk.var
