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.
