I have a job with a mix of windows and linux vms.
Veeam 12.2.
The Job itself has been throwing a warning on one vm every single time the job is run (daily) and its driving be crazy as it is preventing us from getting successful backups.
The vm it is failing on is a linux appliance which was deployed from an ova. The vendor does not support vmware tools per thier documentation.
I notice that someone has turned on "Enable VMware Tools quiescence" under job properties-->storage-->advanced-->vsphere tab.
I can only imagine this was turned on to allow for the backup of other linux vms we have.
With that said, is there any way to get this job to complete with a status of successful if this vm will never be able to quiesce since it doesn't and wont have vmware tools?
I mean im sure the backup of this vm is still crash consistent so im not too concerned there. Id like to see all our backup reports show success for the backups that are run and that is the goal with this.
