Migrated VMs - vm is no longer processed by this job

[angelfive]

Hi,

I've recently migrated some VMs from a 5.5 cluster to a completely separate 6.5 cluster using Quick Migration (cold migration). The VMs were off during the migration and as such the source files were not deleted and the Veeam backup jobs were not updated to point to the new VM instances.

I then modified the existing backup jobs manually, removing the old VM instances and adding the new VM instances.

I'm now seeing the "vmname is no longer processed by this job. Make sure this change is intentional" on every job, even though now we have gone past the 4 day retention policy.
How can I remove any references to the old VM instances now?

Thanks

Hi angelfive,
Looks like UUID of the VMs have been changed during the migration, so Veeam B&R treats the VMs as new.
I suppose you haven't used tags for backups, as tags help to overcome the issue.
It's recommended to contact support team for the closer investigation. They also help to delete the references.
Thanks!
