SRM report "Failed to copy file **.vmx to 'C:\\Windows\\TEMP\\vmware-SYSTEM\\xx" when run disaster recovery

Hi,

when I run a disaster recovery with SRM 6.5 and the scene that SRM server in the protected site is down.

When I run disaster recovery, the SRM report error with "Error - Failed to copy file '[ming-lun-dan] ming-lun-dan/ming-lun-dan.vmx' to 'C:\\Windows\\TEMP\\vmware-SYSTEM\\ming-lun-dan.vmx-ps-1.tmp119': 4 - A file error was encountered ",

I found the ming-lun-dan.vmx file is correctly in the datastore.

besides, I tried the solution to the issue[Site Recovery Manager test recovery fails with error to copy configuration file (2061578)]

https://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=20615...)

but, Sadly the solution did not resolve the problem

I checked the SRM log:

2017-05-22T15:33:59.695+08:00 error vmware-dr[02448] [Originator@6876 sub=Replication opID=60a55244:9e32:4765:6215:9ef9] NFC download from '[ming-lun-dan] ming-lun-dan/ming-lun-dan.vmx' failed, error:(dr.fault.NfcCopyFault) {

--> faultCause = (vmodl.MethodFault) null,

--> faultMessage = <unset>,

--> errorCode = 4,

--> errorMsg = "A file error was encountered",

--> filePath = "[ming-lun-dan] ming-lun-dan/ming-lun-dan.vmx",

--> newFilePath = "C:\Windows\TEMP\vmware-SYSTEM\ming-lun-dan.vmx-ps-1.tmp119"

--> msg = ""

--> }

This problem is very obvious.

Does it is bug? or known problem?

You should open an SR for this if you haven't already.
