VCB Error - Failed to export the disk: I/O Operation failed

When I try to run vcbmounter I receive the following:

I have tried increasing the disk lease timeout and that did not fix it.

any ideas?

[Dave_Mishchenko]

How did you increase the timeout and which version of ESX are you using?

[JasonBurrell]

The problem was permissions. The user I created for backing up the files was not an administrator. I am going to try making the user a backup operater to see if I can use vcb without being an administrator.

Hi Jason,

My Backup Script is using vcbMounter on ESX3.5U4. Though I only run Backups from one host (one VM after another, nothing in parallel), I randomly get the error

DISKLIB-SPARSE: Failed to write out header: Input/output error (327689).

How did you solve your problem?

Thanks in Advance,
