I am trying to do an instant recovery of a VM from one NBU domain to another. The backup image was replicated through AIR. The comand I use is this:
nbrestorevm -vmw -ir_activate -C mspwksv20 -vmproxy mspnbuv01 -temp_location LOCAL_MSPESCH31 -R "E:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\change.txt" -vmserver mspvicv30.datalinklabs.local -L "E:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\progress.log" -vmpo
I get an error 5 in the details:
12/04/2014 17:27:03 - Info bprd (pid=6772) Waiting for Instant Recovery job to end

I filtered a big load of stuff out. Important thing (in my mind) is "FindFirstFile(Z:\backups\mspwksv20\allusers\full\1417703802\_vmir\mspwksv20-flat.vmdk) indicates that the file exists" and yet we get a cannot find the files eror.
vCenter shows the NFS mount and then dismount.
Has anyione seen this before?
