From the DPE side, the authentication error can be identified in SRV logs: /var/log/vcp/srv/vcpserver.log:

The File Level Recovery (FLR) operation is successful when using the same VM credentials if performed using Avamar AUI or Avamar Administrator directly.

原因

The password contains a plus sign (+), causing the VM authentication failure on vCD UI.
This is a DPE issue, currently under investigation with Engineering.

解决方案

Workaround:
Two potential workarounds are available. Try one or the other:

1. Attempt the FLR directly from Avamar UI. 
2. Change the + character in the VM’s password to another symbol.

Fix:
Contact Dell support and quote this article to check on the current status of the Engineering investigation.
