Re: VDR backups

restart the datarecovery service on your VDR appliance and to do so :

1. Log in to the VDR appliance as root from either an SSH session or directly from the console. The default login credentials for the VDR appliance are:
   • Username: root
   • Password: vmw@re
     
     
2. Run this command to stop the datarecovery service (wait about 10 seconds before starting the service again):
   
   # service datarecovery stop
   
3. Run this command to start the datarecovery service:
   
   # service datarecovery start
   
4. Type logout and press Enter to disconnect from the ESX host.
   
   Note: If the service fails to start, restart the VDR appliance.

Let me know if that helped .
