This week I updated our VCenter from 7.02D to 7.03C. The upgrade appears to have been successful. However after the upgrade I did notice my automated backups of VCenter are failing. The backups was working for months without any issue prior to the update. I am using SMB as the protocol to backup to a DFS share that I gave replicated between multiple servers so I have multiple copies. I didn't get the opportunity yet to export the support logs but will do that next week. The thing I find odd is if I run a manual backup selecting the option to use the settings of the scheduled backup it is successful at making a backup. Has anyone else seen issues like this with SMB scheduled backup after upgrading to 7.03C?
Hello Manadrain,
Please share logs from /var/log/vmware/applmgmt/backup.log
I appear to have corrected the problem. I ended up setting up the automated backup again from scratch and so far for the last two days it has been working. This appears to be a non issue.
Great to hear you resolved it.
