VMWare image backup with Block Level Incremental
All,
I tried configure BLIB with NetBackup 7.5.0.3, vSphere 5, vmware hardware version 8 (vmx-08) with VMFS 5. Technically BLIB should backup less data in Incremental backup but its reverse in this...

Have you already tried disabling and enabling CBT?If not, consider to try as below.1) Shutdown VM2) remove all snapshot of VM3) remove CBT setting4) remove *-ctk.vmdk files on datastore5) enable CBT for both VM and vmdk6) power on VM7) take full backup8) take diff backupeventually the forum poster reported a fix made available in 7.5.0.3.But worth the deleting of CTK files to in case CBT failed to identify Changed data Blocks
