AcronisAppliance Out of Memory
We use vmProtect to backup 15 VMs (Linux, different versions of windows). Backup of one Windows 2003 Server (500GB Data) fails after several incremental backups.
Symptoms:
- Backup Task fails
- Last message in log is about Changed Block Tracking
- Snapshot created but not removed
- In /var/log/messages "Out of memory: kill process ..." is logged
Possible Solution:
Increasing the memory of the virtual appliance from 512MB (after installation) to 1GB solved the problem for me.

We use VM Protect installed on a Phisycal (windows 2003) server with 1 GB RAM
"Not enough Memory" error occur occasionally during backup of large volumes (1 TB), reboot of the server solve the problem of the day but the problem comes out again after some time.
I hope that with mvProtect 7 I don't have to deal with that
