Hello to all,
Congrats on the community for these valuable resources. First time in the forum, so bear with me.
Setup is the following:
Vsphere Web Client 5.5 with Data Protection 5.5 (two appliances).
I am trying to restore 1 HDDs from a specific VM (4 HDDs in total) without success.
Info gathered:
1. I can't see the job on the recent tasks. I have to go to more tasks. Additionally, I can't cancel the job from tasks. The only way to cancel is using mccli activity cancel --id=(job id). Task is visible in Vsphere client. Before canceling I waited for over 5 hours.
2. The disk is 30GB in size but the restore always stays "In progress" without any indication. Only way to check: mccli activity show --active
3. Disk name on the original VM is disk003.vmdk. I check the log files from cmd in /usr/local/…and at some point I can see an error:
"...disk003.vmdk is not recorded in the backup and can't be restored". I can't see any other obvious error.
Conclusion is that job stays always in progress, can't be canceled using the web client and the disk is never restored.
I also tried to restore in a different VM with the same results.
Any clue on this "vmdk is not recorded in the backup and can't restored" ?
Thank you in advance.
