Fail Fast restore strategy fails with error 2890 K8s restore data operation failed.
Issue:
When the Fail Fast Strategy is selected and the restore job includes more than 50 PVCs, the job fails with the following error and the VMs are not restored:
2890 K8s restore data operation failed
Note:
This error occurs for Windows only.
Cause:
This issue typically occurs due to high load on the server when processing a large number of PVCs simultaneously. The Fail Fast Strategy attempts to restore all PVCs in parallel, which can overwhelm system resources and lead to failure.
Resolution:
Select the Retry option in the job details. The restore operation will succeed on retry because the system processes the workload differently, reducing the resource contention.
If possible, reduce the number of PVCs in a single restore job or avoid using Fail Fast Strategy for large-scale restores.
