Symptoms

SAP HANA 2.0
Backup run from HDBSTUDIO fails with error below

Error: Invalid path selection for data backup using backint:/usr/sap/XYZ/SYS/global/hdb/backint/COMPLETE_DATA_BACKUP must start with /usr/sap/XYZ/SYS/global/hdb/backint/DB_XYZ

Cause

Database upgrade to SAP HANA 2.0 converts single-container database to a form of multi-tenant database container (MDC).
MDC is the norm for SAP HANA 2.0. This causes backup issues which are to be run from hdbstudio.

Resolution

To fix the user is required to supply database container in a prefix.
For prefix use:
DB_SID/COMPLETE_DATA_BACKUP

1. Right click SYSTEMDB@SID
2. Backup Tenant Database
3. Select Tenant to backup
4. "Destination Type": Backint
5. "Backup Prefix" 
DB_SID/COMPLETE_DATA_BACKUP
