Not sure if this is a netbackup issue or a VMWare issue, or something in between. We recently implemented VCB backups for our Windows clients, I am noticing that when I go to add some virtual machines (not all) to a policy using the "browse virtual machines" feature they show up with just the Windows short name or they don't show up at all…..the backups fail in both cases (host not found). I am trying to figure out if the issue is with Virtual Center, the VCB Proxy, etc.…..what I should see when I use the browse virtual machines feature is servername.FQDN (that is what I see on many of the others). If you drop a netbackup client on the virtual machines and back them up the old school way then everything is fine (but I really want to use VCB for the VMs).

We are using Netbackup 6.5.3 and ESX 3.5
