Hello everyone,

I have a little question about backup with the VMWare python plugin.
Before that, here's the background:
I have about 80 vm on a VMware cluster, however I have the backup of a VM that crashes randomly.
It's an active directory, I don't know if that can have an impact.

Here is an error log
```

I searched the VMware documentation (cf. https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1018194), I can't find any application in relation to the Bareos backup system with the plugin.

Has anyone encountered this problem before?


Thank you,
Simon

To complete the information, when this error occurs, there remains a snapshot on Vsphere, even several days later, it is not deleted.

Also, when I delete it manually, and I restart the backup job, it works without problem..
