VM ESX 4.1 - Win XP ...does not meet the requirements...

Fail Error: Backup- VMVCB::FDMServer' does not meet the requirements necessary for Backup Exec to restore individual application items. You cannot perform GRT-enabled restores of application data from this backup.  

 

The VM is running on ESX 4.1.  This VM is running Windows XP SP3 with most win updates installed.  The only drive (c:) is NTFS.  The agent is up to date, as is the Backup Exec 2012 SP3 server software.  This is using the vmware agent.  We use host a program which people connect to remotely through software, which is essentially a flat file database.  There are no other softwares installed on this VM.

 

How do i get it to a point where i do not get the error messages and leave GRT enabled?

Re-install VMTools followed by the BE remote agent.

The user is using BE 2012 so he cannot load his media server on WinXP.
