disconnected network adapters STILL connected!

Post by seth.lohr »

I'm not sure where else to put this, but:

For:
Veeam Backup Enterprise Manager Service
Build: 12.3.1.1139

For ONLY the Web UI:

When you "disconnect" the network adapters for the host you're validating, they will still show up in VMware vSphere as ready to connect during power on (seems like a major bug!)

When doing the Instant Recovery from the Windows console (Veeam Backup & Replication 12), the issue doesn't occur. VM is set disconnected when it's told to be disconnected.

Can anyone else replicate this issue?

Try (from the Web UI): "Entire VM Restore", "Restore to a new location, or with different settings", go through the wizard, disconnect the network adapter. When you get to "Power on target VM after restoring", I suggest you do NOT check that box.

See if the VM is restored into vSphere with the network adapter connected.

Hi Seth, welcome to the forums.

I was not able to reproduce on 12.3.1.1139, so probably a Support Case is the way to go. I am not immediately aware of any known issues like this, so please open a Support Case and be sure to include logs for Support to review.

Please share your case number once created, thanks!
