SUMMARY
Maintenance and troubleshooting for the VMware environment
ISSUE
Purpose
To describe the value of rescanning and refreshing the virtual machine list when experiencing issues in the VMware environment.
Description/Resolution
If you are receiving a missing UUID error, removed the virtual machine from the VMware environment, or you have just restored a down virtual machine, you should rescan and refresh the new virtual machines to help keep backups from failing and missing virtual machines from continuing to backup needlessly.
