VMware acknowledged a known issue (KB2136854) within ESXi 6.0 and 6.0 U1. CBT looses the information of I/Os during snapshot consolidation. The main backup isn’t affected but all data written during the consolidation task are missed.
ALL CBT incremental backups are potentially affected.
VMware currently has no resolution.
Update 25.11.2015:
VMware released a patch for the CBT bug.
VMware ESXi 6.0, Patch ESXi600-201511401-BG: Updates esx-base (2137546)
With the latest update to vCSA 6.0 Update 1 I’ve got an undefined error when I use the WebClient (Update vCSA 6.0 to vCSA 6.0 Update 1). The VMware Support said that a certificate mismatch in “User Experience Program” caused that error, but could not solve it.
My first thought was, ok, then I install a new vCSA. But every one of you know that there are many things to consider and a lot of work to transfer all data, permissions, roles, rules etc… *not funny*
The VMware KB article (KB2091961) describes the Backup and Restore of the vPostgres Database for Windows and vCSA.
Here are the steps to backup a vPostgres database and export the roles and permissions from a vCSA.
In my last post (Backup vCSA vPostgres database, roles and permissions) I described the creation of a vCSA vPostgres database backup and the export of all roles and permissions. Now it is time to restore the data.
If you want to transfer data from or to the vCSA with a client like WinSCP or e.g. you get the error message “The remote Server sends no data” or similar.
