Replication Halted: Target VM Running State | Vembu-VMBackup

Replication Halted Due to Running State of Target Virtual Machine in BDRSuite

KB ID: 105041
​Cause:
Replication cannot continue when the target virtual machine is in a powered-on state.
Solution:
To overcome this issue, consider implementing one of the following solutions:
1. Reverting Failover:
If a failover operation has been performed, attempt to undo the failover for the specific job. This might involve returning the virtual machine to its previous state, allowing the replication process to resume.
2. Power Off the Virtual Machine:
If the target virtual machine has been manually powered on, shut down the virtual machine. Once powered off, proceed to run the incremental backup for the affected job.
Note: This solution addresses the "Replication Cannot Continue Due to Running State of Target Virtual Machine" issue in BDRSuite. By following these steps, you can rectify the situation and ensure the smooth progression of the replication process.
