VMWare Backups Failing - Login Failure?
Hi, We have recently started having an error when backing up VM's via the vCenter server: The job failed with the following error: A failure occurred while locking the virtual machine in place for backup/restore operations. VDDK-WARN: VixDiskLibVim: Login Failure. Callback error 1800 at 2500. I can't find much information on this callback error code, anyone have any insights? The account used has full top level vCenter permissions and previously worked. I have ran a debug and at the point of failure we see: [fsys\shared] - VDDK-Log: [LoadTempHive] Registry hive D:\Program Files\Veritas\Backup Exec\Data\VMwareTemp\vixmntapi225\BCD is loaded under the name mntApi388674662730830357 [fsys\shared] - VDDK-Warn: ERROR 2 opening key mntApi388674662730830357\Objects\{9dea862c-5cdd-4e70-acc1-f32b344d4795}\Elements\12000002 [fsys\shared] - VDDK-Warn: ERROR 2 opening key mntApi388674662730830357\Objects\{df2aff03-2345-11df-9851-e076a68f85fc}\Elements\12000002 [fsys\shared] - VDDK-Warn: ERROR 2 opening key mntApi388674662730830357\Objects\{df2aff02-2345-11df-9851-e076a68f85fc}\Elements\12000002 [fsys\shared] - VDDK-Warn: ERROR 2 opening key mntApi388674662730830357\Objects\{df2aff04-2345-11df-9851-e076a68f85fc}\Elements\12000002 [fsys\shared] - VDDK-Warn: ERROR 2 opening key mntApi388674662730830357\Objects\{521d7511-7875-11e7-93d9-e44bb22fdbc2}\Elements\26000022.
