Hi Siva,
But going through the vStorageAPI documentation the recommended way is to use both UUID and the vmmoref to identify a VM. Why is that necessary?
Could you kindly post a link to the docs you refer to.
Say if I manually update the stored UUID to the newly created one, would incremental backup continue to work(whether the ctk and delta files be intact during storage vmotion??)
According to this
- In some cases, such as a power failure or hard shutdown while virtual machines are powered on, CBT might reset and lose track of incremental changes. Likewise offline Storage vMotion, but not online Storage vMotion, could reset but not disable CBT
I would say yes as long as svMotion is done online - otherwise CBT is supposed to fail.
