Scale-out Repositories Error
Best answer by MicoolPaul
In which case create another folder on the same repository server for your config backups, configure your config backups job to save to that repo, and then you can add your original repo to the SOBR
+15Do you have configuration backups enabled and does that store the data on “Local Repository”? Or do you have any jobs currently that targets that repo?

Does the Configuration Backup target the “Local Repository”? You cannot add a repository to a SOBR when it's used by a job or the configuration backup
