I have an 'Instant VM recovery' always running, status is 'Failed' on the Status column, but status is 'In progress' when double click on the job, and the last line of the log shos 'Waiting for user to start migration'

I already did the migration from my vCenter and that vm works fine now. I tried to stop that job using powershell commands but nothing work! I also noted that it no end time on that job!

Can you help me please? Thanks a lot

Try these steps -

Turning off Instant Recovery in Veeam Backup & Replication

  • Step 1. Open Veeam Backup & Replication, and go to the Home tab.
  • Step 2. Navigate to Instant Recovery Sessions in the Running section.
  • Step 3. Select the active instant recovery session for the VM you want to disable.
  • Step 4. Right-click on the session and choose Stop Publishing. This will end the instant recovery session and unmount the VM from the backup storage.
 
 
 

I tried but I don’t have ‘Stop Publishing’ to choose but just ‘Stop session’

 

Thanks

Try Stop Session then as that should work.

 
 
 

Nope! Trying stop session does nothing!

Maybe can I hope for a solution as christmas gift!

Yes contact support as it could be database related and you will need their help if even reboot does nothing.


Hi,

Did you maybe have multiple VMs running in Instant Recovery? You talked about the vCenter, maybe some mappings (vSphere related) got corrupted while performing actions, I had this a few time in the past.

But I don’t unterstand completely: Does the Instant Recovered VM work? So can you access the streamed VM or not? In case not it might be a dead or corrupted Veeam service, maybe try rebooting the Veeam server (and subsystems, don’t know you architecture - mount server should be restarted as well).

Please talk to support first! I agree with Chris, you should open a ticket.

 

Did anything happen to the NFS datastore that Veeam published within vSphere?

 

Just a few thoughts, hope that helps. Please feel free to keep us posted when support provides a solution.
