d. Select Create Recovery Set with application consistency to ensure application consistency.
This option is used to create snapshots of Recovery Sets that adhere to data format
standards used by the VMware Tools.
CAUTION: While installing or upgrading the VMware tools, you must reboot VMware
on the system where it is running, otherwise the application consistent snapshots may not
be valid even though they are reported as completed successfully. This scenario may also
occur when the VMware tools are not upgraded on the VM system, following an upgrade
of the ESXi server.
NOTE: If new VMs are added to a datastore, you must update the policy to ensure the
VM application consistency.
