Time Machine konnte das Backup auf „My Passport" nicht abschliessen
Backup von „/Users/martin/Library/Application Support/DEVONthink/Inbox.dtBase2/DEVONthink-9.dtMeta" konnte nicht erstellt werden.
occurred after upgrading to DT 4 pro
please help, thanks!
This is a question for Apple as we don’t develop or support Time Machine.

Yes, as @BLUEFROG says, this is Apple’s software. In the meantime, it could be file is in use or locked by DEVONthink at that moment. Close down DEVONthink completely and re-run TimeMachine. Also, do a Verify and Repair on the database in DEVONthink as that might release any locks that are inadvertently put on the file/folder.

sorry! - but this is a problem that occurred only after upgrading to DT 4 and only with files created / controlled by DT 4.
I know what Apple would answer to this.
For sure there is some locking or protecting by DT4 which I do not understand.
I did both already before, problem stays. Am I the only one? Never had any problem like this
Are the file(s) “locked”? What are the macOS permissions on the file? Look in Finder.
Looks normal. Thanks for help 
This file was moved during upgrading to DT4 I think (?)
Anecdotal evidence.
I also have intermittent issues with backups, Arq and Backblaze similarly.
Did you verify your backup volume? Enough free space on it?
