Table: Error run into while restoring Red Hat Virtualization virtual machines
Error message or cause | Explanation and recommended action |
|---|---|
VM recovery to alternate location fails on a Windows primary server. | For a Windows NetBackup primary server, ensure that the rename file ends with an empty line. |
Pre-recovery check runs successfully when a VM with the same UUID exists in the Red Hat Virtualization cluster and the option to overwrite the VM is not enabled, but the VM restore fails. The following error message is seen: Info bpVMutil (pid=1196) FTL - Virtual machine exists and overwrite option not specified, can not proceed with restore. end Restore; elapsed time Hypervisor policy restore error. (2822) | Pre-recovery check compares the VM display name instead of UUID to find out if VM already exists, hence the check completes successfully. But if the overwrite option is not set, the restore job fails if a VM with the same UUID already exists. Workaround: Restore the VM with a new UUID
Overwrite the existing VM that has the same UUID

When you try to recover an Red Hat Virtualization VM image that is imported from a different domain using the Web UI, the pre-recovery check fails and displays that by default the recovery host is the same access host that was used during back up. | During the recovery of imported Red Hat Virtualization VM images, for the recovery host, select the access host in the target domain as a recovery host or select the target primary server. |
