Hi
Been getting this strange behaviour during restore tests - any ideas?
The data is restored then NBU realises its failed and deletes the recovered data from the VMware datastore. We restored the machine to a different data store and gave it a new display name and uuid.
The NBU account on vCenter was set-up according to the technote on what permissions the NBU account should have. There shouldn't be any problems there.
NBU= 7.6.0.3, VMware 5.5
Given that media server is actually MS Windows it is unlikley to find the file /usr/openv/netbackup/.rename.9488 because that is a Unix path.
