Veritas NetBackup™ for VMware Administrator's Guide

In the policy Query Builder, display names, resource pool names, and vApp names are case-sensitive

In VMware vSphere, virtual machine display names, resource pool names, and vApp names are case-sensitive. For example, a virtual machine with the name "vm1" is a different virtual machine from one that is named "VM1."

The VMware virtual machines with the name values that do not exactly match the query string case are not returned in the result set. Backups for those virtual machines are missed.

For example, for the following virtual machines:

vmware-ted
VMware-charles
VMWARE-john
vmWARE-jason

A query specifying Displayname Contains "vmware-" returns vmware-ted but not the other virtual machines.

See NetBackup for VMware: notes and restrictions.
