Removing a backup from VSC

[GARYWADAPT]

I've got a few backup jobs in VSC - one of them has had the underlying volumes deleted and trying to remove it from the VSC consoles backup and recovery section is proving to be a pain.

Is there anyway of forcing this backup job to go away?

Cheers.

You should be able to manually remove it by doing the following:

• go into the installation folder for SMVI (should be %install%\virtual storage console\smvi\server\etc)
• copy the existing "scheduledBackups.xml" file to scheduledBackups.orig (just in case)
• stop the SMVI service on the VSC server
• edit the scheduledBackups.xml file
  • search for the volume you'd like to remove
  • scroll up to the beginning tag of <backupjob>
  • remove everything up until you hit the end tag of <\backupjob>
  • save the file
• restart the SMVI service
• close and reopen the vSphere Client
• click on "Home" -> "NetApp" -> "Backup and Recovery"
• make sure that you're job has been removed

Let me know if that helps!
