Troubleshooting Microsoft SQL Server application-aware backup error about disk.EnableUUID variable
A Microsoft SQL Server application-aware virtual machine backup succeeds but displays the following error when the disk.EnableUUID variable for the virtual machine is set to TRUE:
VM '<asset_name>' configuration parameter 'disk.EnableUUID' cannot be evaluated. Map item 'disk.EnableUUID' not found. (1071)To resolve this issue, set the disk.EnableUUID variable to TRUE and then reboot the virtual machine.
