Hello everyone.
On a two node vsphere 5.1 cluster I've created two new vm windows 2012. i created two replication jobs and two backup jobs.
the replication jobs worked at the first run but the backup job fail every time.
The source vm is 50 GB and there is plenty of space in destination folder.
On both esxi datastores i have aproximately 45 GB free
i tried to unregister & register the vm, restart vranger server, restart esxi managment service to no avail.
i have another backup job with other vm on the same vranger server that runs successfully.
Could anyone help with that issue ?
here is the failed job log that is generated:
Thanks
