Abstract
Identifying virtual machines and errors for snapshots is described. A system receives, from a volume snapshot service, an error message and a corresponding component identifier associated with a backup operation. The system requests a corresponding snapshot status from each component participating in the backup operation. The system receives a corresponding snapshot status from each component participating in the backup operation. The system requests an error identifier from a component corresponding to a snapshot failure status. The system receives the error identifier from the component corresponding to the snapshot failure status. The system identifies a virtual machine based on the component identifier. The system outputs, via a user interface, a report identifying the virtual machine and the error identifier.
