Hello,
I am trying to restore a VMware Virtual server. This a legacy server which we want to migrate to a newer OS. For testing purpose we need a copy of the server.
We brought down the server started the backup using the vmware method. A snapshot was made and the backup started. When the snapshot creation was done we brought up the server again. After some time the backup finished succesful.
Then I started a restore of the VM. A couple of month ago I did this the same way and I succeeded to restore the VM. Now we need a new copy of the production and we tried doing the same. Now the resore fails. What happens is I start the restore after a succesful backup. The first step is that Netbackup creates a VM, I ve seen this step and useally this takes a few minutes. With this restore it finishes after two hours and then we have a VM without any data in it, it just does the first step, creating a vm then it ends with "Status = VMware policy restore error, 2820".
I am tryng to do a relocated restore in the same VMware cluster on a different ESX-server, a different name, and a different datastore. We use Netbackup 7.6.0.1. I already enabled verbose logging on the Master server and the media server, but I can't find what prevents us from restoring the VM.
Whare should I start looking?
