Netbackup VMSnapshot backup 156 : deleteSnapshotLockFile delete failed

Hi,

I am facing issue with VM snapshot backup. I see below errors in bpfis logs. (deleteSnapshotLockFile: Lock file rename for delete failed with errno[18]: Invalid cross-device link
17:37:01.734 [24127] <4> bpfis: INF - EXIT STATUS 4207: Could not fetch snapshot metadata or state files) and lot of lock files are created under /usr/openv/netbackup/online_util/fi_cntl/ directory. 

VMware Teams are able to take manual snapshot successfully and there are no pending snapshot for consolidation. The VSS logs are in attachment

This VM seems to have a floppy drive connected to it for some reason. Try removing it then run a backup again.

Try t create manyally file in /usr/openv/netbackup/online_util/fi_cntl/ folder and then rename it. If the foldes has too many files you might face with the problem and bpfis can't rename file too.
