    NEVER initialize those LUNs...you will wipe out all your VMs.

    That link definitely opens on my side, but you can also try:

    If you are seeing multiple LUNs, make sure that these aren't doubled from the # of LUNs presented to your media server. For example if you have 2 LUNs with VMs on that are presented to the media server, make sure it doesn't show 4...if so, and you know you only presented 2, you might have a problem with multi-pathing software on the media server so check this too.

    Thanks!

Hi,

 

I assume you're using SAN Transport mode if your LUNs are presented to the media server. Check below to make sure it is set up correctly:

Also, in the AOFO tab, have you specifically selected a VSS provider, or is it set to automatic?

Thanks!
