Data Recovery 2 : Snapshot Fails -3941

Hi There,

Anyone spotted what might cause this?

1/10/2012 6:30:13 PM: Normal backup using IRON1
1/10/2012 6:30:55 PM: Failed to create snapshot for IRON1, error -3941 ( create snapshot failed)
1/10/2012 6:30:55 PM: Task incomplete

Nothing very helpful to go on.

Thanks, Stephan.

Hi,

The VM Guest is on a ESXi 4.0 host and not the ESXi 5.0 Host where the Vmware Data Recovery 2 appliance resides.

I'm guessing that this is why?

Thanks, Stephan.
