Backup Exec attempted to back up an Exchange database according to the job settings. The database was not found in the Database Availability Group DAG

When attempting to backup an Exchange 2010 DAG you recieve the following error:

V-79-57344-896 - Backup Exec attempted to back up an Exchange database according to the job settings. The database was not found in the Database Availability Group (DAG), however. Update the selection list and run the job again.


You have verified that the backup exec agent service is running with the LSA account and is in the Exchange org admin group. In this instance the issue was caused by renaming the database display name for example “MDB01 Tier1” to “MDB01 Tier 1 500GB”.
