For additional information regarding this error refer to link  V-79-57344-65097

Cause

The NDMP API behavior was not as expected when backup selection only had snapshot selected.

Solution

Workaround:
Backup the snapshot folder along with the volume in one job.
The error is seen when only the snapshot folder is selected for backup ( without the volume).
