12.5 fails to detect applications on virtual machine
Hi Acronis,
I tried to detect the applications of two virtual machines but this fails with:
VMware Tools is unavailable. It is probably not installed.

This is simply wrong. Both vms are successfully running with the latest vmware tools.

Some more information: I restarted vmware tools on the first machine and now it behaves like the second. Detection returns with no error (and empty results).
Next I tried to enable application backup in the backup plan (AD and SQL). Now I got an error that the user is not a domain admin. I entered another user but the result is always the same. Then I had a look at event log. There's an event from source VGAuth which shows
vmtoolsd: Username and password successfully validated for 'domain\user'
The user was not updated and still used the credentials from the detection. So I went back to detection and entered the correct user. Detection still does not show any results but now I was able to enable application backup.
Regards
Martin (feeling like a beta tester)

Hi,
Having the same problem. I'm not able to connect to AD app backup using Administrator credentials only on the VM detected by the Appliance.
Error: The specified user does not have enough rights to create an application-aware backup. User Account Control is enabled in the guest system and this user is not a built-in administrator.
If I manually install the agent and supply the same credentials, it connects.
What could be wrong ? I'll try to disable UAC but as I know it's already disabled by default for built-in administrative accounts like Administrator.
