Backup Exec 16 + vSphere 6.5 NVMe Controller = failed Backups
I wanted to try the new NVMe Controller on a with vSphere / ESXi 6.5,
but when I run the System, which I want to backup with this Controller, my Backup Jobs always fail after just a couple minutes.
BE Server runs 2012 R2 & BE 16.0 Rev 1142
Backed up System also runs 2012 R2 with vmware hardware compatibility level 6.5 (hardware version 13).
I get these errors:
VixDiskLib_Open() reported the error: You do not have access rights to this fileVDDK-Warn: ERROR opening boot.ini file boot.ini for reading VDDK-Warn: ERROR: Unable to create a temporary file at 'C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Data\VMwareTemp\vixmntapi'. VixDiskLib_Open() reported the error: You do not have access rights to this file
when I go back to LSI Logic SAS SCSI Controller, backups run fine again.
Is this configuration not supported?
I suspect VDDK 6.5 is still needed agains the fact that NVMe adapators are a new ESXi option and probably is not supported by VDDK 6.0
