Description

Error Message

0xe00084af - The directory or file was not found, or could not be accessed.

Cause

Backup Exec Remote Agent for Linux can deal with only one unified character code on the system-wide.

If there are files/directories using multiple character codes, Backup Exec cannot back up such multiple character code files or directories on a Linux system.
For example, one file name is encoded by UTF-8, another file name is encoded by Shift_JIS.

Backup Exec cannot read the multiple character codes. The files or directories on a Selection List are garbled with the Backup Exec administration console.

Resolution

The character code to be used on a backup target Linux system has to be unified.
