We have an VDP Appliance that is backing up one Guest VM fine but the second Guest VM it continues to error out after 10-30 seconds stating "VDP: Host is in a state that cannot perform snapshots."
I can manually create a snapshot within vCenter. I have rebooted the machine countless times trying all sorts of things based on articles I've found on the internet. I have reinstalled the VM Tools three times. There are no errors in either the system or application log in windows. There are no vssadmin list errors.
I have gone down many of the articles listing similar issues:

The server is currently running Windows 2008 R2 with local disks for Storage. No SAN connections.
Full Error in vCenter:
