  When a mount path is created using UNC paths, verify and ensure that the user account used to access the mount path has sufficient permissions to read / write in the software install folder in the computer in which the MediaAgent associated with mount path is installed. This is because the MediaAgent uses these folders to create the necessary log entries in the log files for jobs associated with the mount path.
