After upgrading and applying a new license (.asc) to vRanger the backups don’t run. The error vRanger displays is: Failed to acquire the shared resources.
(<Host> is not licensed for the Backup feature.)
The cause is the way (the name) Host was added to vCenter. It was not added with FQDN or IP, it was added with the simple server name.
Because ESX host backups are direct to target backups please follow the steps below to credential the ESX host(s). The steps below are not necessary for ESXi hosts because VC credentials can be used to perform backup jobs against these hosts.
