You have to check the mountpoint options or your nfs server then.

EPERM: operation not permitted, chown '/mnt/managedbackups/ad77c02b-ca57-4f26-a7ff-7c33cc6323d3/snapshot/app_0499beed-5f6d-4f2a-aa50-c2e8848986f2.tar.gz

can you check the permissions and ownership of the files with ls -l /mnt/managedbackups/ad77c02b-ca57-4f26-a7ff-7c33cc6323d3/snapshot/ ?

Most likely you can fix this by chowning the old directory with:

sudo chown yellowtent:yellowtent -R /mnt/managedbackups/ad77c02b-ca57-4f26-a7ff-7c33cc6323d3/
