How to backup individual AD objects using Symantec Backup Exec 11D
I get this error message when trying to backup individual AD or Exchange files. The backup media is a Dell R1000 internal removable 160GB drive. Using Symantec Backup Exec 11D.
Backup- C: V-79-57344-4608 - The backup-to-disk folder that was specified for this job must be on a local NTFS volume. Create a new backup-to-disk folder on a local NTFS volume or modify the current folder, and then submit the job again.
What needs to be changed to allow the device to individual file backups.

About the backup to disk ...have you created a Removable Backup to disk folder ??

Yes I have created a removable backup folder. That is the problem as it seems the software does not seem to like doing this type of backup to a removable backup to disk folder.
I can run the backup to tape or to another hard drive without any problems it is only when backing up to a backup to disk folder that this problem occurs.
It seems odd that you have to create a backup to disk folder in the first place. Why doesn't it treat the removable hard drive like a tape and simply run the backup directly to the disk?

agreed. Further research has proven that this is currently a limitation of the software with no plans of being fixed any time soon.

I accidently deteled an global exchange servive account, instead of having to recover from backup. I just used this tool after the object was deleted. It created an AD re-cycle bin of what was in the tombstone at the time. I righted clicked my object and recovered it.
I hope you do find your solution....
