Re: Failed to start the virtual machine after restore

I assume you use different hardware (CPUs, BIOS settings) for the restored VMs!?

The VM has vPMC enabled, which causes the issue. You can either disable it in vSphere Web Client (you can't do this in the Windows vSphere Client) or direcly edit the VM's .vmx file by setting vpmc.enable to "FALSE".

For how to enable/disable this setting in the Web Client see Enable Virtual CPU Performance Counters in the vSphere Web Client. If you are going to edit the .vmx file manually, you either need to remove/re-add the VM from/to the inventory or reload it (see http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1026043)
