is /backup on the same hard disk or its new hd ?

ls /backup
cat /etc/fstab

and for backing up only mysql you u can goto https://ur.server.name.here:2087/scripts/backupset and disable Backup Accounts and enable Sql Databases (at least per accounts is needed to use the restore feature)

try this for the time being:

mkdir /backup

then try to re-save the settings.

yeah mkdir /backup

but its a VERY bad idea to have backups on / because it might fill your root partition /

try using /home/backup if /home is a different partition
