Title: SME and AFFA : ESX Virtual Machine Backup
Post by: JeoShi on June 29, 2009, 06:45:37 PM
Hi,

First of all, a great thanks for those works around SME and AFFA, especially over Vmware Infrastructures !

Here's my trouble :

I'm trying to backup a VM, based on VmWare ESX 4.0 Essential from Affa (other Vm over other ESX)
SME and Affa installation is working fine, the job is well configured as the jobconfig-esxi-sample.pl shows.
The problem is when the job :
  - backup all *Snapshotx.vmsn
  - try to backup de delta disk and fails because this one is locked.

Is the script /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/Affa/esxi.pm responsible for choosing files to backup ? I think so  !
How can  i modify this one to include all necessaries files (vmx, vmdk, etc.) and exclude other (vmsn, delta, etc.) ?

Thanks
