Troubleshooting

Excluding LUNs from the NetVault Selections pages Performing a restore in which Disk Numbers are different from the backup Access denied during MBR recovery VMware ESX and ESXi Server 4.x and earlier not supported with Windows PE Attaching a restored VMDK image to a VM fails to power on the machine VMDK restore job to remote ESXi 6.0 fails with failure to clone error

Attaching a restored VMDK image to a VM fails to power on the machine

Restoring a Plug-in Live Client Windows backup to a local directory VMDK image and then attaching it to a virtual machine (VM) created from VMware can fail to power on the VM with the following error: Failed - Unsupported or invalid disk type 2 for ‘scsi0:0’. Ensure that the disk has been imported.

This error happens ESXi version 6.5 fails to address the VMDK descriptor.

To resolve the issue, after you restore the VMDK image, complete one of the following two methods:

•

Method 1: While attaching the VMDK to the VM, change the storage controller from SCSI to IDE.

•

Method 2: Use vmkfstools to convert the flat disk vmdk to a vmdk descriptor file. For more information, see https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1028943.

VMDK restore job to remote ESXi 6.0 fails with failure to clone error

The VMDK restore job from a Windows NetVault Server to a remote ESXi virtual machine fails with the error “ERROR: Failed to clone remote VMDK disk.”

This error happens because The Windows NetVault Server does not have the VDDK certificate registry key.

To resolve this issue, add the following registry key on the Windows NetVault Server:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Wow6432Node/VMware, Inc./VMware Virtual Disk Development Kit/VerifySSLCertificates

REG_DWORD 0 = OFF
