vRanger backups failing with "Error 2712 - cant create directory"
Description

When attempting a backup of a VM using vRanger it fails for every VM going to the repository with:
"Error 2712 - cant create directory"
Cause

A possible cause of this is that the server path for the repository is named "localhost"
Resolution

It is best practice to name the repository path using the following naming convention:
"\\Server Name or IP\\Share Name\
