On JetBackup 5, In order to increase the security of your backups, JetBackup has decided to allow only one Destination per Backup Directory. If the destination with the exact same Backup Directory path was used on a previous installation of JetBackup 5 it will result in the following error:

Code: Select all

Error: This destination path is already owned by other destination in this server. (Destination: "NAME" ###################)
If you want to work around this error you can create the destination as a Read-Only Destination which will allow you to access the backups from that Backup Directory but will not be able to write new backups to that directory. More information on Read-Only Destinations can be found here: SSH - Read Only Destination.

Otherwise, you will need to remove the `.jetbackup` file that is located within the Backup Directory. Once this lock file has been removed, you will be able to create the destination with the original Backup Directory. However please note that since this is a "New Destination" JetBackup 5 will not be able to continue incremental backups on the existing backups. It will start from new backups. This has been gone through in detail in the forum: Change cpanel server with same backup job

Please let us know if you have any more questions.
Best Regards,
