Troubleshooting Failed to get VM (GUID) config Path WMI empty Result – #Veeam #VeeamVanguard #S2D

Hey Checkyourlogs Fans,

Today, I was asked to troubleshoot some failing Veeam Replica jobs for a couple of VMs inside of a 4-node S2D Cluster.

The issue presented itself as failing jobs for a couple of VMs giving the following error message:

Failed to process replication task error: Failed to get VM (ID: GUID) config path. [WMI] Empty result.

The issue turned out to be with the Hyper-V Host itself needing a reboot.

So we just moved the VMs to another node and re-ran the replica and it worked successfully.

Easy fix: I like these

Hope you enjoy it,

Dave
