Same issue: cluster of BL460C's on iSCSI to a 3Par7200. Backed up 213 VM's using VeeAm 8, and one of the VM's crashed and failed over while VeeAm was removing the snapshot. It happened on one of the very few VM's that had an upgraded VMtools (I hadn't come round to updating the Tools on all VMs, so only 10 of them are running upgraded versions).

Are there more people like KBAdmin and me who experience more frequent crashes with updated VMtools than VMs with old VMtools?
