Hello *SM administrator. I have pretty odd situation happened to one of my
clients. The scheduler will not backup all the local domain drives except C:
& G:. This client has all these partitions: C:\, D:\, E:\, F:\ & G:\. So, I
added a domain line to include all these drives into the client option file
to see if this will make a different. Well, it did see these drives
according to the schedule log. But, it came back with the error, "ANS1063E
Invalid path specification". So, our operator had to do a manual backup to
back up these drives each morning from the GUI. So, I'm running out of idea
at this moment.
So, I need help desperately to fix this one because this client has so many
important stuff. The following are information from the client option (part
of it) and schedule log.

domain c: d: e: f: g:
