Error removing old vsphere infrastructure

Post by ajulio »

Hello,
In one of my VBR server I have and old vsphere infrastructure configured that doesn't exist anymore and I want to remove it from the configuration, but when I try to remove it I receive a message that it's not possible because its linked to a backup copy job, but when I go to that copy job I only have a VM that its on another host server.
How can I "unlink" this old infrastructure from the job.

Hi Antonio,

Can I ask you to check the Backup Copy Exclusions and see if the machine is listed there? If so, just remove the exclusion and you'll be able to remove the host.

If you cannot find it in the Exclusions, please open a Support Case and allow Support time to review the situation.

But my guess is that it's a leftover exclusion, which uses information from the vCenter to ensure the machine gets excluded regardless of what is added as a source to the Backup Copy job.

Thank you David,

You're right, there was VMs in exclusions that below to that old infrastructure.
