Problem description

While accessing the backup proxy from the VM Console, the following error is displayed:

Assuming drive cache: write through.

Cause

This is a known issue with CentOS. It returns a write message as the virtual disk does not have a write-back cache.

The error appears only when you access the backup proxy using VM console. Using SSH to access the backup proxy does not result in such an error.
