Site Recovery Manager error when creating placeholder VM

Hi, I've created a protection group for a number of VMs and the placeholder VMs also get created on a non-replicated LUN, bar one VM. I recieve an error message relating to permissions, however, there is nothing different about the VM that fails and all other VMs that have placeholders. Does anyone know what the issue maybe?

Thanks

Attached is a screenshot of the message and also the log file. Note that the error message appears in the vcenter task section as soon as one selects to set protection and then also after the configuration. With regards to the log file scroll thorough to the end for:

[#1]    object = 'vim.Folder:group-v193',

[#1]    msg = "Permission to perform this operation was denied.",
[#1] }
