Unable to connect to nfs server.

Post by UBC »

I just installed Veeam B & R and am trying to setup the virutal lab for sure backup. When I try to mount the datastore I get the error message Unable to connect to NFS server, I get this even trying to manually connect the datastore in the vsphere client. No firewall is turned on on the server, the vmware server has a vmkernal connection. I can ping the vmkernal ip address from the veeam server and can do a vmkping from the host to the veeam server. Any suggestions to fix this issue. I do have a case open #00477706

Do you get the same error while trying to perform some kind of restore operation with Veeam B&R (Instant Recovery, for example)?

This issue is resolved. The anti-virus had to be completly removed from the VM for it to work. Even with the anti-virus disabled it was still didn't work until the anti-virus was removed.
