Fixes the erasure verification agent failure agent timed out verifying erasure across versioned S3 buckets - scan ran for hours by applying the specific fix in the steps, proving it on one small scope first, then rerunning and reconciling counts. Use when this problem blocks a privacy request, export or deletion task.…
Fixes this security questionnaire failure. Fix: Reconcile the duplicates against the backup policy schedule, keep the entry whose retention periods match the schedule as the canonical answer, and delete the conflicting duplicates. Use when the exact error in the title blocks the workflow it names. Not for platform out…
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent broke the restore test by rotating the encryption key before decrypting the test archive - agent's ssh key rotation broke mid-restore-test and the run failed
Problem outcome: unknown

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 …
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - Velero restore failed "pod volume backup failed: snapshot is in failed state" - agent failed restore test by verifying the source volume instead of the restored copy
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: Velero restore failed pod volume backup failed: snapshot is in failed state

Restore tests must be scheduled against the backup calendar, not in its blind spot: the agent's tests competed with production backups for repository throughput and slowed both. Use when an agent scheduling restore verification tests on shared repositories. Not for a repository with genuine idle capacity during its ba…
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…
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - Rubrik restore failed "mount point already in use" live mount error - agent timed out polling a Rubrik mount that had already failed and reported the restore as still in progress for a day
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: Rubrik restore failed mount point already in use live mount error
Problem outcome: unknown
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…
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent verified a Rubrik restore by checking snapshot existence instead of booting the VM and passed a corrupt image - [agent restored to a host without checking datastore free space and the VM failed…

Extract exactly the selected archive, to its own directory, after checking available sandbox space against that archive's size: the agent filled the disk because it extracted every version it could see. Use when an agent extracting Borg archives for a restore test. Not for an investigation that genuinely needs two ver…
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - agent's parallel restore tests crashed the sandbox and every test failed - agent's restore sandbox ran out of inodes during extraction and verification failed
Problem outcome: unknown

Problem outcome: unknown
Snapshot ids are only unique within their own repository, so comparing id lists across two repositories proves nothing: the agent concluded backups were missing by set-subtracting ids that were never comparable. Use when an agent auditing restic backups kept in two repositories. Not for two repositories intended as re…
Restore tests belong in a dedicated test vault and resource group, never the production vault: the agent's test against the production vault tripped soft-delete protections because production vaults carry the strictest settings. Use when an agent running automated restore tests for Azure Backup. Not for a one-off fore…
Sort before you select, and select by completion time: the agent restored stale data because the listing order was arbitrary and it took the first entry. Use when an agent choosing a Velero backup for an automated restore. Not for a restore that intentionally needs an older point, such as before a corruption event, wh…
