Re: Failed to create processing task for VM

OK. Devs have just confirmed to me that the fix in Patch #1 prevents this situation for occurring on the new installs only. Existing installations must have configuration cleaned up manually by our support.

Before contacting support for manual database cleanup, you can try the following: remove SAN LUNs from the proxy, perform rescan, present LUNs back and perform rescan once again. Should help.

Same problem here.
I have a case #00729931
Veeam Support ask me to delete job and recreate it.
I have 8 replication jobs and i don't really want to delete and recreate them...there's must be another solution !

Benoit, have you tried the workaround mentioned in my post above? If that does not help, please ask your support engineer for a manual database cleanup (most likely, case escalation will be required).

Sorry, I don't really understand when you say 'remove SAN LUNs'. My veeam server and proxies only see vcenter.

I mean remove proxy server access to the LUN, so it does not show up in Disk Management.

How can i do that ?
My veeam proxy servers don't have access to any LUNs. They just see the vcenter and the VMs.

Support called me again in my homeoffice and we fixed it together:
+ create new proxy for "127.0.0.1"
+ edit all jobs to force them to use new proxy
+ delete proxy "This server"
+ uninstall "Veeam Backup Transport"
+ create proxy "This server" ("Veeam Backup Transport" is reinstalled)
+ switch jobs back to "This server" Proxy
+ delete proxy "127.0.0.1"
+ switch jobs back to automatic selection of proxy (if used)

Don't know what exactly fixed it, but for the moment the job is running - lets hope it stays like that...

I will give you a feedback next week; have a happy new year!
Thanks a lot, that worked for me !!
