Error Message 10169

There was an error reported during the reconfiguration of the virtual machine to enable the "disk.EnableUUID" parameter (which is required for an application-consistent backup). This could occur when the virtual environment has recovered from an error (e.g. an unexpected power cycle of the ESX server while the VM was running). This error can be resolved by shutting down the VM and running a new backup job. (To reduce the down time of the VM, the VM can be powered on during or after the "Taking Snapshot" phase of the new backup job).

Symptom

Error happened when reconfiguring the virtual machine to enable the "disk.EnableUUID" parameter which is required for an application-consistent backup.

Solution

Try shutting down the VM and running a new backup job.
