Exception:

A backup plan already exists for this TFS system on a different machine

Explanation:

The database has an extended property that it stores the name of the machine used for the backups. This was set while running on the original box. You need to remove this value before the power tool will allow you to configure a new backup.

Solution:

Execute the stored procedure on Tfs_Configuration DB

EXEC sp_dropextendedproperty @name = 'TFS_BACKUP_PLAN_CONTROLLER'
