Backup attempts to quiesce the VM even with quiescing disabled

Hello.

 

I'm using Avamar for backing up all the VMs in the datacenter dynamically, with quiescing enabled in the backup job.

A few machines were completing the backup successfully but with warnings, reporting not being able to quiesce the VM, thus proceeding with a no-quiesce backup.

 

I've identified that this issue is related with servers that has raw disks mapped, this is a VMWare known issue. Then I've disabled quiescing on these specific VMs. The method I used was the referred in the known case, which was setting disk.EnableUUID to FALSE.

This solution has worked for the majority of the VMs with this problem, but a few still report the same warnings. A few VMs are still trying to quiesce, disregarding the setting.

 

What can I do to enforce the setting?

 

Thank you.
