Hi All,
I am moving over from the old netbackup 6.5 to 7.5 and am trying to iron out some of the issues before turning off the old system.
I have a policy which backs up all VMware hosts. It does most of them without too much bother but gets stuck with a few. It seems to get stuck when doing the snapshot in VMWare I have searched the forum and have tried the solution to issues which I thought were the same but not getting anything. There are other machines in the policy which seems to work ok. I have compared the details on the host sides and can't see anything outstanding.
I would be very greatful if anyone could shed any light on this at all.
I have put in the output from the job description please let me know if any other information would be helpful.
Thanks
James
