I encountered a trouble with VBR (community edition V12) to backup our ESXi 7.0.
We have around 10 servers (linux) running with docker.
Everything works well till now.
One VM cannot backed up with VBR.
The error message was
Code: Select all
15/02/2024 08:56:32 :: Processing MYSERVER Error: VDDK async operation error: 1. Value: 0x0000000000000001
Failed to upload disk 'vddkConnSpec>'
Agent failed to process method {DataTransfer.SyncDisk}.
Exception from server: VDDK async operation error: 1. Value: 0x0000000000000001
Unable to retrieve next block transmission command. Number of already processed blocks: [21803].
Failed to download disk 'MYSERVER -4-flat.vmdk'.1-reboot -> same issue
2-THE GOOD SOLUTION (for us):
add a new disk in the server
Move data on disk 4 to a new disk.
Fortunately our docker data are stored on /docker partition.
We stopped docker service like that the /docker partition cannot be written (because it is dedicated for docker data)
We created the directory /docker1
We created a new partition using fdisk, format it and mount on/docker1
cp -apx /docker/* /docker1
find the UUID using blkid command for the new disk, and modified the /etc/fstab like that
UUID=eeead5bb-310f-4579-9f18-bfc4a00d0510 /docker ext4 defaults 0 2
and we commented the "original" /docker disk
reboot the server and restart a veeam backup.
Everything works !
after we removed the old disk which cause the trouble.
