Hi,
today I have one backup task that runs crazy, It should have been stopped during the night (it have only 3 hours of backup window), I press cancel but I only see Canceling execution... for hours. (see attached picture)
Is there any way to really finish this backup without to restart vdr machine?
Thanks
HI
Try to shutdown the Data Recovery Service.
Thanks!
how can I do that??
ok, I got it but...
[root@vdr ~]# service datarecovery stop
Stopping VMware Data Recovery services:
VMware Data Recovery Watchdog [ OK ]
VMware Data Recovery
Waiting for VMware Data Recovery to stop... (1 of 15)
Waiting for VMware Data Recovery to stop... (2 of 15)
...
what's that?? I'll wait but I don't know what's going wrong.
Finally
[root@vdr ~]# service datarecovery stop
Stopping VMware Data Recovery services:
VMware Data Recovery Watchdog [ OK ]
