We have had some trouble with some backup jobs. It is concerning backup of virtual servers. The puzzeling thing is that some days it is OK and others NOT.
From Arcserve I get this "help":
Error AE0521
VM Mount operation failed. VM hostname: <VM_name>
Module:
Agent for VMware, Client Agent for Windows
Reason:
" You have entered invalid credentials (user name or password) of VMware ESX Server or VirtualCenter Server while submitting the backup job in the 'Security and Agent Information' dialog.
" There is not enough space in the disk volume on the VCB proxy system.
" The ESX server is down.
" VM has become temporarily unmountable.
" Any VM having disk mode as Independent (Persistent/Nonpersistent)
has been included in the Backup source.
" A VM is no longer available in the VMware environment.
