My old VDP installation stopped working, thought I'd start all over with 6.1.1. But it's not working at all.
All hosts have access to a NFS share through a vmkernel. VDP machine runs on NFS share and has got an IP on the same NFS network.
Jobs have halted because of failed snapshots, really messy to clean up snapshots, removing all snapshots over and over until it's finally removed.
Started a new job, halts at "Host is in a state that cannot perform snapshots". Started the same job today and a mccli activity show results in this:
