11.1.6 - clone stops mid-cloning - no error

log from remote esxi server doing backup
failed during during cloning
checked job status and status is \[I\]

the time is now Tue Nov 27 17:08:30 UTC 2018

I didnt think it would take over 10 hours to do that clone.

Thanks

Re: 11.1.6 - clone stops mid-cloning - no error

You have some orphan VMs that are raising errors (Skipping invalid VM '34'), they could also interfere with the snapshot process.
First of all, please keep your inventory in a usable status and try again.
