I use Ghetto VBC to backup some VMs on a HOST and it's been working fine for a long time. Due to space requirements I changed a VM on this HOST ( and will do for other VMs ) the location of where any snap shots are held. I edited the devices VMX file adding the lines:
workingDir = "new_path_location"
snapshot.redoNotWithParent = "true"
I re-registered the VM, powered it back on tested it and great, any new snap shots are then put in the new location I created for them on a different Data Store.
Problem I have now is that when this device backs up using the Ghetto script I get this error for this device:
2016-03-16 06:36:34 -- info: Initiate backup for helpdesk

Can anyone point me in the correct direction to getting this resolved ?
