How much free space do you have right now and what is the size of the VMs added to the backup job?

my free space in datastore is 0.0 and my vm size is 1.6TB.

(I have one VM on this datastore, Unfortunately all space is given to the VM )

Hi,

You can't perform a backup of a VM if you do not have any space on the datastore where this VM is supposed to "put" snapshots. However, you should be able to workaround this situation, as mentioned on the initial pages of the current topic - please take a detailed look.

Thanks
