On meta1, backup path: /sasbackup/backups, run backup OK.

On meta2, backup path same meta1 ( use share iscsi for cluster)

when config i have error:

Looks like the backup path is configured as sasbackup/backups instead of /sasbackup/backups so it's a relative path.

The warning you see doesn't seem to be reporting that, as it's including the SASMeta/MetadataServer path in it. I'm not sure why that would be other than the initial / being missing. You may want to engage SAS Technical Support.
