VCB error 4052 failed to export the disks

Hi, I'm having problem with VCB.

It might be very stupid question but I cant figure it out.

I have read through the document about VCB.

I guess I fulfilled the requirements.

VCB Proxy OS is Windows 2003 standard server.

I have“ disabled Automatic Drive‐Letter Assignment.

I have“ installed VMware Consolidated Backup

SAN LUN is shared with VCB Proxy and ESX server.

(Both of servers can see the LUN and LUN ID is same)

I have installed the backupexec as third party backup tool.

However when I execute this command, I got error says "Error: 4052 failed to export the disks".

command is below

vcbmounter.exe -h ip_of_VC -u user -p pwd -a ipaddr:ipaddress_of_VM -t fullvm -r c:\mnt\backup

Are there anything that I forgot to do?

Thank you
