Veeam Hot-Add Mode Fails – Mismatching VMFS block size
Recently had a problem were Veeam was giving bother on one VM that had a dedicated datastore, not allowing hot-add virtual appliance mode to work. I originally thought it was a problem with CBT (changed block tracking) so I disabled that, with no luck, as it transpires there were a few (all datastore formatting related) problems: The Veeam proxy’s datastore was formatted in VFMS-3 with a 2MB block size and upgraded to VMFS-5 (retaining its 2MB block size of course - otherwise a reformat would be needed)....
