1 year ago Ok I have two backup jobs running the same time on separate esxi servers to the same NFS datastore, so maybe that's why the IO error
What I've done is change the time of esxi1 so it runs 2 hours before the esxi2 kicks off its backups, hopefully that solves it
hi all,
so i have a problem with two of the vms being backed up
