Description:
Challenge
Cisco HyperFlex VM Snapshot creation process will stop VMs if a Veeam CDP storage policy filter is present. Affected VMs will not boot anymore.

Solution
Upgrade Cisco HX to prevent this from occuring Veeam RnD has confirmed that this issue is resolved in Cisco HX 4.5(2a) when used with vSphere 7.0 U2. Updating will prevent this issue from occurring but does not resolve it if it has happened.
