You might wonder — if one VM fails during a backup job, does that mean the whole thing is doomed?
Not really! One VM stumbling doesn’t mean the entire job goes down. 😌
🖥️ In most backup systems, if one VM fails, the others will keep backing up as planned. Here's what usually happens:
⚠️ The failure is logged with details — snapshot issues, network hiccups, or permission problems.
✅ Other VMs proceed normally — no need to panic!
🟡 The job may show as “Partially Successful” or “Completed with Warnings” — still better than a full red ❌
📣 Pro tip: Enable notifications so you won’t miss partial failures.
And always check those logs — they tell the full story.
