Valid on Windows platforms.
Symptom
The Incremental Backups for VMware virtual machines are converted to Verify Backups. The activity log states the following message:
“Convert Incremental Backup to a Verify Backup because the virtual machine snapshots either changed from the last backup job or needs consolidation.”
Solution
Use the VMware vSphere Client to consolidate the virtual machine snapshots. For more details about consolidating snapshots, click on the following VMware Knowledge Base article:
Note: Consolidating the snapshots for a virtual machine can fail due to locked files. If the backup job uses the HOTADD transport mode, then verify that the backup proxy virtual machine settings on the ESXi server does not contain the hot added hard disks. Then consolidate the virtual machine snapshots.
