Uninterruptible failover replica

Post by g.bacci »

Dear Forum,
testing veeam replica failover/failback I have setup a replica for a VM.
Then I have executed a failover of this vm. So the replica vm become the new production vm.
In the veeam console I can see an active replica for this vm.
Then without using the failback function I have created a second replica of the new production vm on the original vm using the seeding option.
Now in the veeam console I can see two active replica for this vm.
Then I have done a permanent failover for this second replica process.
So in the veeam console now I have an active replica process that I cannot interrupt. I have tried permanent failover, undo failover and failback to production.
I have tried to remove the vm from the vcenter inventory, restart the veeam server. Create another replica process...
The error is always the same: Unable to find replica VM for 'vm-name'.

How can I clear this replica process?

Thanks for your cooperation.

Technical support should be able to do this for you by cleaning up configuration database directly.
