2 VDR "impossible to create the snapshot for < system >, error-3960 (cannot suspend virtual machine).

We test VDR on our ESXi 4.1.0 cluster 381591 and we have a few backups to a test Windows 2003 server and a Linux server and they backed up fine. We have a backup of a Windows 7 computer virtual test and we had a bunch of these errors...

Failed to create the snapshot for systemname, error-3960 (can not suspend virtual machine)

Which is strange because I can go in vSphere client and manually create a snapshot and remove without problem. Any ideas on why this is happening?

Thank you

You can try to set the 'disk. EnableUUID' to 'false '.

  • Impossible to create capture instant for VM1, error-3941 (create the snapshot has failed)

    I vSphere 4.0.0 208111 using VDR 1.1.0.707 appliance for backup of a Windows Server 2003 SP2 with VMware tools installed (including the VSS component).

    I am unable to back up a VM, but can save all other virtual machines.

    Any ideas?

    Paul

    To simulate a VDR initiated snapshot, try a manual snapshot of the virtual machine and see if it passes or fails.  If it fails, then that explains the error 3941.  Be sure to uncheck the memory status and check the comments of quiesce file system option during an attempt of the manual snapshot because it will mimic the snapshot operation that initiates the VDR.

    Hi Michael,

    You're talking about recovery disk from the manufacturer created from the computer recovery partitiion or are you talking about a generic recovery for repairs disk (making it impossible to reinstall the operating system)?

    If the recovery disk from the manufacturer, please contact technical support from the manufacturer for assistance that the process of creating a disk of the partition recovery is their process and not Microsoft and varies by manufacturer and sometimes even my computer within this manufacturer model.  We do not know how to deal with each type or how to handle a problem such as you experience with this process - even if we knew that the manufacturer make and model specific to computer which you did not (but with which we might be able to provide specific links to the manufacturer).

    If you mean a recovery for the repair disk, then try using the following to do an and see if it works any better than any method that you use: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/141820-create-recovery-disc.html.

  • SRM 5.5 - vSphere replication - error: impossible to reverse the replication for the Virtual Machine. A snapshot operation cannot be performed

    Hi all, we have just run a test DR failover of a couple of virtual machines in our protected our failover site and all site swung perfectly, two virtual machines came online and all applications work well. However when we cam to r-eprotect machines virtual, we get some errors.

    One of the virtual machines seems to have lived the reprotect end process, it is still running, but has not moved to 89% for some time. The virtual machine has a couple of grand (a little less than 2 TB) VMDK. slow progress is just a consequence of the large VMDK?

    More worrisome is the virtual machine which don't reprotect at all. It generates an error whenever I click on the "Restore" button (error: impossible to reverse the replication for the Virtual Machine.) A snapshot operation can not be performed).


    Does anyone have any ideas as to the cause?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Andy

    Finally got to the bottom of this. The issue was that reprotect SRM work was trying to dispel any snapshots that were taken on the computer object virtual destination in VMWare, but could not clean snapshots.

    The reason why snapshots would not consolidate was because it was snapshots of temporary VEEAM who in fact any snapshot file listed in the VSAN data store. So when we looked through the browser data store, no snapshot file existed in the virtual computers folder. Trying a manual removal also failed.

    To fix this, we created a snapshot of the virtual machine in the original data center (note is the engine to the bottom of the virtual machine), this effect was to get rid of the 'fade' snapshot that was visible in the Snapshot Manager that VEEAM backup had left behind. Once this had disappeared, the reprotect back to DCA worked perfectly.

  • vDR 2.0 on ESXi 4.1u1 - could not create the snapshot (cannot disable Storage VMotion)

    Two vCenter servers - updated to 5.0 and the other left to 4.1 for now. All ESXi hosts are always 4.1u1. Updated vDR devices since the notes say 2.0 is compatible with 4.0u3, 4.1u1 and 5.0, but now none of my backups work. No matter what vCenter the plugin works through, each virtual machine backup process immediately fails with the error "failed to create the capture instant for VMname, error-3961 (cannot disable Storage VMotion). I can still take snapshots manually via vSphere Client, so I don't know why vDR fail to take a. Ideas?

    Add a few lines to datarecovery.ini on VDR:

    [Options]

    EnableSVMotionCompatibility = 0

    and reboot device here. Page 44 of VDR Admin Guide.

    I found the problem

    Some VM had a disc mounted in vSphere. It worked until last week, don't know why this problem only appears now.

    After you have disconnected the CD, 'manage the snapshot' list still empty, I clicked on consolidate first, after that, back to 'manage the snapshot' and my snapshots

    appeared. And last step, I deleted this snapshot for merge all...

    Maybe this will help someone else...
