Failed VMWare jobs keep retrying until windows is closed when they're not supposed to.

Hello:

I'm using NetBackup 7.5.0.1 and am encountering an annoying issue.  My backups are set to retry up to 2 times in a 12 hour period on failure.  This works fine for all jobs except the VMWare Policy jobs.  When these jobs fail, they keep retrying about every 4-5 minutes until the backup windows closes.  Does anyone know of a way to prevent this behavior?  I would like it to behave just as the rest of the jobs do.

Thanks.

Sounds very much like this one - an EEB for 7.5.0.3 - does indicate that it doesn't occur until you have upgraded but who knows?

It actually does apply to me since I see I accidentally put in the incorrect version number that I am running.  I am at 7.5.0.3.

Thanks for the information.
