CORE VERSION: 6.2.1.100 on a windows 2012R2. We are NOT agentless
I am trying to perform a onetime VM export to a virtual machine: vCenter/ESXi and the job has failed over 4 times. The first attempt was a linux machine. I tried an export from an incremental. that failed. I tried taking a base first then tried the Export, that failed. I tried going to a windows machine to export and that failed. All have the same errors.
Exception chain:
VDDK Handle is invalid. This can be due to VDDK API proxy restart.
