VSS_E_NONTRANSPORTABLE_BCD

VSS_E_NONTRANSPORTABLE_BCD The Backup Components Document belongs to a non-transportable shadow copy, but the requested operation requires a transportable snapshot. The snapshot type and the workflow do not match.

What to check

Verify that the snapshot was created specifically for transport or import rather than for a local backup workflow.
Use the requester and provider documentation to confirm the supported transport process for the storage platform.
Create a new, supported transportable snapshot set when the existing BCD represents a non-transportable copy.
