agent verified a Rubrik restore by checking snapshot existence instead of booting the VM and passed a corrupt image

Existence is not restorability: the agent passed a corrupt image because its verification stopped at the snapshot listing. Use when an agent running restore verification for Rubrik-protected VMs. Not for a snapshot whose VM boots but whose application data is stale by design, such as a crash-consistent copy, where the…

agent counted offline VMs as patched after a snapshot revert restored their pre-patch state

Fixes this failure: judge VM patch compliance from inside the guest after the snapshot revert point: tag snapshots taken for patching, alert when a patched VM is reverted. Use when the exact error or symptom in the title appears. Not for a different error, tool, or a manual process with no such failure.

Velero restore failed "pod volume backup failed: snapshot is in failed state"

The pod volume snapshot underneath the restore is in a failed state, so the namespace metadata restores but the volume data cannot: inspect the pod volume backup objects for the failed snapshot, read the uploader's error for that volume, and fix its cause, commonly a full repository, a locked snapshot, or a node that …

Nakivo restore failed "failed to create target VM: datastore is inaccessible"

The target datastore being inaccessible at restore time is a host-side storage condition: check the datastore's state on the target host in the hypervisor, whether it is mounted, its free space, and whether a storage event, a lost LUN or an NFS outage, made it vanish after the job was configured. Use when a Nakivo res…

Google Backup and DR backup failed "appliance is not reachable" error for VMware VM

The management console cannot reach the backup and DR appliance, so every job for its VMs fails at the same door: check the appliance's power and service state, its network path to the console and to the hosts, and whether a certificate or version change broke the connection after an update. Use when a Google Backup a…

Azure Backup failed "extension installation failed with code 0x80070005" for VM snapshot

Error 0x80070005 is access denied inside the guest: the Azure VM agent cannot install or run the backup extension because of in-guest permissions, a locked-down extension path, or security software blocking the extension's binaries. Use when an Azure Backup job protecting an Azure VM with the snapshot extension. Not f…

AWS Backup restore failed "invalid parameter value for member account" error

The member account parameter the restore passes is being rejected because the restore is running from the wrong account context or targeting an account that has not accepted the shared setup: restores of shared or copied recovery points must be executed with the correct account relationship, and the recovery point's v…

Cohesity restore failed "failed to register VM with the hypervisor" error

Registration is where the restored VM meets the hypervisor's rules: check the target host or cluster, datastore space and permissions, and name collisions with an existing VM of the same name. Use when a Cohesity recovery restoring a VM to its hypervisor. Not for a restore whose data copy itself failed earlier, where …

Rubrik restore failed "mount point already in use" live mount error

The mount point is still held by an earlier live mount, a leftover test restore that was never unmounted: list the mounts for that VM or snapshot, unmount the stale one cleanly, and confirm the mount host and datastore are the ones this restore targets before retrying. Use when a Rubrik live mount restore of a VM snap…

agent retried an Azure Backup extension failure until the VM agent entered a failed provisioning state

Retry has to stop at the diagnosis threshold: extension installation failures are deterministic, permissions, agent state, or guest policy, so the agent's repeated retries pushed the VM's agent into a failed provisioning state instead of fixing anything. Use when an agent remediating Azure Backup extension failures on…
