Description: VM backup comment

What is vmBackupComment?

This object carries free-text detail about the outcome of a single VM's backup, sent with vmBackupResult in the onVmBackupCompleted trap. It gives the admin the specific reason behind that VM's result, similar to backupJobComment but scoped to one machine. For example, the comment "VM tools timeout during quiescence" explains why VM "SQL01" reported a failed backup.
