Hi,
We lost a vmdk during a data move. It's the C drive of one of our servers.
We have a backup from before , but the machine had 4 drives. C / D / E / F
C drive backed up completely , but the backup failed because the other 3 drives were set in independent mode.
I have an inconsitent VBK file which must contain my C drive. Is there a way to recuperate this?
Here is the log file.
6 of 11 files processed
Total VM size: 650.00 GB

Re: Lost VMDK , VBK can't be opened...
Hello Erik, it might be a possibility to recover the data you need, but this would require involving developers and using special tools to retrieve the data. So please open a support case to get this started.
