backup fail after upgrade from vmware 5.5 to vmware 6.0
Hi,
I have a backup failed issue on a HP dl 360 gen 8 (vmware 6.0.0 2494585 HP ISO).
After upgrade from vmware 5.5 to 6.0 (with no errors), the backup job fails always with same errors:
Impossibile eseguire l'attività con ID '9121A8E5-BC4A-4326-A66F-2F872F3C386B' (esecuzione interna).

It's a italian version, but we can read errors code easily and the last error is significant: "failed to queisce the vietual machine"...
I don't know why... do you have an idea?
thanks a lot
bye

Hi Vasily,
I tried to do snapshot in the vsphere client console, but here it works perfectly... snapshot process fails in acronis backup task only.
do you have any ideas?
thank you

Hi Marco,
The snapshot may not work at specific _times_ only, for example if there is some specific load imposed onto the ESXi host. The general rule is: when quiesced (remember to check the quiesced option when taking snapshot) snapshot works - backup will work as well. You can check it by creating snapshot manually, then removing it and _right_ after that running the backup task. Acronis Backup for VMware doesn't control the snapshot creation procedure - it's just calling vSphere to create the snapshot. Therefore in your case the solution might be to re-schedule the backup task execution to some different time.
Thank you.

I confirm you that if I take snapshot manually on vsphere client, it works fine, but backup task fails... Is it a vmware host problem?
thanks

Hi Marco,
Can you please post here the vmware.log for the problematic virtual machine (it's located in the datastore folder of the VM)? It will give us more clues on what's going wrong.
Thank you.
