VM selection (guest credentials, disk exceptions) in Vsphere tag-based jobs in 13.1.x

[jeronimo]

Hello,

So I have case #08218750 open but from their current understanding it seems it may take a while.

Just want to make sure that nothing related to VM selection is inherently broken since sometime in 13.1.

So I have this tag-based VM backup job and as you can see in the blue window, there are already credentials created that modify the default tag used.
However I am unable to add more exceptions to it (green window).
The green window shows the tagged VMs properly, but once I press OK nothing happens.
Also I do not seem to be able to add more tags from the green window. (As we can see in the blue window some tags are already present overriding default behavior, so all of this worked before)

Same thing if I want to add disk exclusions(inclusions).

Is this a known issue?

Thanks.

Hi jeronimo,

I see similar behavior in my lab, doesn't seem correct (for both custom guest creds and for exclusions).

I'm not aware of any known issues yet so likely needs to be investigated further.
