I'm trying to restore a test VM and having trouble.
The VM was backed up fullvm to a Windows proxy server with vcbMounter. Then the VM was deleted from disk in VI3 to simulate a DR scenario.
We used WinSCP to copy the files back to the vmfs, in the same folder they were originally in.
Now we're trying to use vcbRestore to return the files to a bootable state. Only it is erroring out and I'm not sure why.
contents of catalog file include the lines
. config.vmx= "[SANVOL1 (1) TestMachine/TestMachine.vmx"[/i]
. folderpath= "/Hosts & Clusters/Bartlett/vm"[/i]
command I'm using is
. vcbRestore -h 10.18.4.101 -u user -p pw -s "/vmfs/volumes/SANVOL1 (1)/TestMachine" -L 6[/i]
error message includes
. Error: Containing folder "/Hosts & Clusters/Bartlett/vm" for VM not found.[/i]
We're confident that the actual folder and file path is correct for the files in question; I don't understand where I need to reference the "Hosts & Clusters/Bartlett/vm" path in the restore command, or how I otherwise get past this error.
