Hi Mirza,
I tried to reproduce on one of my replicas with a few restore points (snapshots) -- initially it flagged for consolidation, but after the next backup run (which ran as normal incremental), the consolidation warning was removed.
Few questions quick:
1. For the replica jobs, are you targeting a cluster or an individual host?
2. Are the datastores of the same type? (VMFS, NFS, etc)
Storage vMotion can work with snapshots since vSphere 5.x, so I'm not sure at the moment why the consolidation alert triggers and seems to self-resolve in my test.
Allow me a bit of time to research this and I'll update the topic once I have more information.
