Restore Command Failed

Symptom:

Executing the Restore-PCBSVmfsDatastore returns:

'Failed to re-signature VMFS volume.'

Applies to:

When restoring VMFS datastore located in ActiveDR pods using -PodName "podName" or -VolumeName "podname::volumename".

Cause:

The pod was not promoted.

Resolution:

For restoring a Pod or Pod::Volume, you have to promote it first. Once pod is promoted it will be available for I/O, and the Restore command could re-signature it.

This document describes how to manage ActiveDR in an Azure VMware Solution using Everpure Cloud Manager for AVS.
