Re: Error on VDP 6.0

You have an extra snapshot file.  I would first confirm that the vmdk of the failed backup is not attached to the VDP proxy.  Remove it if it still is attached.  Run a snapshot consolidation.  I've found that rarely you have to do a storage vmotion when consolidation doesn't remove the extra snapshot files.

 

The key entry that is telling you what the problem is:

2015-09-01T20:00:08.647-02:00 avvcbimage Warning <18652>: Too many extra snapshot files (1) were found on this Windows VMs datastore. This can cause a problem for the backup or restore.

 

I believe there is a good chance this issue will be less common after the next major VDP release.  Automatically cleaning leftover hotadd mounts is a new feature of VDDK 6.0.  Avamar 7.2 is taking advantage of the new feature.
