So, I configured a new location for the backups to be stored (a subdirectory on the original) did a few backups to it from the cluster no problems as usual. ran the restore wizard it found the recent backups no issues, I even ran a backup just to make sure as its my lab environment. then I copied the contents of the original backup directory into the new location. Ran the restore wizard expecting it to time out, but no it found the relevant files. So I'm a bit stumped.
Now as this is my Lab its not exactly the same as the work environment (network infrastructure etc) So I will raise a change control Monday so I'll see if I can replicate the issue in Production. Just to be clear the original issue is with running the Restore Wizard and not being able to see the backup just taken. So it's not a cop file mismatch, different versions of the cluster, it's not file permissions. So I suggest that don't take it for granted that if you can backup your cluster that you will be able to restore should you need to, you need to test it periodically. Any how I'll update with the outcome.
