Veeam backups fail - NFC storage connection is unavailable

If your backups are running fine and then stop all of a sudden with the following error message:

Processing 'VM-NAME' Error: Client error: NFC storage connection is unavailable. Storage: [stg:datastore-192,nfchost:host-188,conn:vSphere-Name.fqdn]. Storage display name: [DS03].
Failed to create NFC download stream. NFC path: [nfc://conn:vSphere-Name.fqdn,nfchost:host-188,stg:datastore-192@VM-NAME/VM-NAME-01.vmx].



You checked Veeam KB 1198 and it does not help, all your backup repertoires are there and accessible. Most likely it is a problem with the vCenter Server.

Solution:
Log into your VMware vShphere server and restart the "VMware VirtualCenter Server"
Run your backups now :)
