Environment

TAS environments

Resolution

This error occurs if your CF deployment is missing the backup_restore VM. Please ensure this instance is set to at least 1 in the Ops Manager UI -> TAS tile -> Resource Config.

Please also ensure this VM is in a running state with bosh -d <cf_deployment> vms
