Symptoms

O PowerProtect Data Manager é usado para proteger o ambiente vSphere com a solução Transparent Snapshot Data Mover (TSDM). Os backups de máquina virtual (VM) falham com o status de saída ABV0016 durante o "Creating LWD snapshot" passo. Os detalhes do trabalho da interface do PowerProtect Data Manager mostram:
ABV0016: VM Direct engine 'localhost' is unable to back up the virtual machine '<my-vm>' on vCenter 'my-vcenter.domain.local' because of a vCenter API issue.

The VM Direct engine cannot complete the backup of this virtual machine because a vCenter API operation did not complete successfully.

 To troubleshoot this issue: 1) Verify that the vCenter can be reached. 2) If the vCenter is busy, wait for some activities to complete and then retry the operation. 3) Verify that the virtual machine exists on the vCenter.

O vSphere Web Client mostra tarefas para a VM afetada e mostra tarefas de erro contínuas ao criar o snapshot baseado em LWD.

O log de exportação de backup mostra:

O tsdm.log host do ESXi mostra uma falha contínua ao tentar se comunicar com o Data Protection Daemon (DPD).

Cause

O DPD é um estado inválido no servidor ESXi que hospeda as VMs afetadas. O vSphere Web Client mostra o daemon DPD em um status Parado.
 

Status do daemon dpd do servidor ESXi

A causa do DPD ser inválido e mostrar um estado interrompido é desconhecida. O dpd.log host do ESXi mostra uma exceção há alguns dias e, em seguida, interrompe o registro.

Resolution

O DPD deve ser reiniciado no host do ESXi afetado. O DPD pode ser iniciado usando uma sessão SSH do ESXi:

[root@my-esx:~] /etc/init.d/dpd status
dpd is stopped
[root@my-esx:~] /etc/init.d/dpd start
Starting dpd:Setting the memory limit for dpd resource pool on this host to 320 MB
Setting max number of file descriptors to 800
Setting MALLOC_ARENA_MAX to 20
success

[root@my-esx:~] /etc/init.d/dpd status
dpd is running


O DPD também pode ser iniciado usando o vSphere Web Client para o host do ESXi afetado em "Configure >Services":
 

Iniciar dpd por meio do vSphere Web Client


Se necessário, entre em contato com o suporte da VMware para investigar mais a fundo se o DPD é inválido e mostra um estado Parado.
