Hello Guys,

I'm trying to set up a new PROXY node for the TSM For VE environment. I have configured the Data Mover and Data Center nodes and I can see the list of VM's to backup from the GUI as well as from the commmand prompt.

However, when i try to initialize the backup using "Backup vm Nodename -mode=iffull" i'm receiving the following error message.
Please advise as how do i get rid of these...

Thanks in Advance...

Not sure but this looks pretty close to the type of error you are getting from the API return code:
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/510707

What type of disks are in the vm and what transport method are you using?

Also you are getting some PSC errors and while a defect was identified in vmware, there are other issues that could be related to a bad password being supplied to vmware.
