Hi,

maybe the problem is causing of that information:

[01:00:57] Found backup: HOST = '10.1.8.61', VOLUME = 'gpesx', SNAPSHOT = 'smvi_GP-VC01_Daily_BackupClass_VM2_NAS01_novmsnap_recent' ...
[01:00:57] Use of -svip: Changing HOST = '10.1.8.61' to HOST = '10.1.8.60' ...
[01:00:57] Preserving SMVI backup with storage controller 10.1.8.60, volume gpesx, snapshot named smvi_GP-VC01_Daily_BackupClass_VM2_NAS01_novmsnap_recent ...

The Volume gpesx is on the Host 10.1.8.61 (gp-nas02) and maybe the job trys to find the Volume on the Host 10.1.8.60!

gp-nas02> snap list gpesx
Volume gpesx
working...

%/used %/total date name
---------- ---------- ------------ --------
4% ( 4%) 1% ( 1%) May 27 01:01 smvi_GP-VC01_Daily_BackupClass_VM2_NAS02_novmsnap_recent (snapvault)
4% ( 0%) 1% ( 0%) May 27 01:00 smvi_GP-VC01_Daily_BackupClass_VM2_NAS01_novmsnap_recent

gp-nas01> snap list gpesx

Volume gpesx does not exist or is not online.

Could this be the reason?

Regards,

Daniel
