Good day,
I'm using vSphere Data Protection basic 5.5 to backup my VMs. Some of my backup job failing to backup. Error from client log file:
2013-12-11T21:01:09.512-5:00 avvcbimage Warning <18652>: Too many extra snapshot files (1) were found on this Windows VMs datastore. This can cause a problem for the backup or restore.

No snapshots present on that VM.
No delta files in the vm folder.
Tried consolidating but still no luck.
Any help/pointers is appreciated.
