Veeam email alert all restore points deleted because of disk space increase
I have Veeam backup and recovery and was wondering why I received the email message after I added disk space to one of my VM's using VMWARE. I added 50 GB and then rescanned the drive and increased the drive space. Does it always delete all restore points when you do this? I thought I've increased disk space before in VMWARE and did not see this message.

This is a restriction of VMware - if you do replication, Veeam realizes multiple restore points as multiple snapshots in the target. A disk with snapshots can not be changed in size.
Veeam Backup Jobs should not have this problem.
I would not really call it "expected" behavior, as I personally would not expect Veeam to remove old replica without a choice for the user. But it is a technical limitation.
