Error description
When a VM filespace representing the backups of a VM guest as stored by the Tivoli Storage Manager for Virtual Environment - Dataprotection for VMware on the server is renamed on the server with the command : RENAME FILESPACE then the backups for this VM guest will not be visible anymore from the client. Renaming the above type of filespace is not supported. Tivoli Storage Manager Server Versions Affected: All versions, all platforms in combination with any version of windows or Linux based Tivoli Storage Manager for Virtual Environment - Dataprotection for VMware data stored on the server. Customer/L2 Diagnostics : The above described issue was seen when the target VM guest was to be deleted and reused with the same VM name. The intent of renaming the filespace was to keep the data for some time as an archive before deleting it when the new VM guest became operational. The recommended way to keep VMware guests' backups with a different retention time is to perform these backups with a different target node name with the backup data bound to an appropriate management class. Initial Impact: low Additional Keywords: filespace VM backups rename GUI TDP4VE
Local fix
Rename the filespace back to its original name to regain access to this data from the client.
