I have upgraded to the latest XSIBACKUP-PRO version on Srv2, and by the looks of it, when it connected to Srv1 to run the command, it updated the files on Srv1 too, however I cannot restart Srv1. To me it just looks like a replacement of files, is a reboot really necessary?

It shows XSIBACKUP-PRO version 10.2.1 in the log now, but unfortunately the problem remains.

Thanks for the help so far smile

Yes, it has been renamed to license.key and placed in the xsi-dir.

In the output from the log it also says: "XSIDiff 1.0.5 licensed:" - doesnt that mean it detects it?

Hi,

We just started using xsibackup-pro, but have issues with the size limitations still there after activation. We have used the request.key to get a license.key and uploaded license.key to the xsi dir. The logs shows XSIDiff 1.0.5 licensed as well.

xsibackup-cron-x.x.x.x.log:
2018-01-05T20:02:17|  Info: transfering file [ /vmfs/volumes/5a33de03-789b222b-fa1d-78e7d18d8d88/vmname/vmname-flat.vmdk ]
2018-01-05T20:02:17|  Info: first Rsync transfer is assumed by XSIDiff, as it is faster and will preserve VMFS data sparseness
XSIDiff 1.0.5 licensed:
File#1 size 107374182400 bytes
*** This is a trial version limited to 10485760000 bytes, parsing 107374182400 ***
Exiting...

This is the command being run from xsibackup-cron:
"/vmfs/volumes/datastore/xsi-dir/xsibackup" --time="Fri 20:00" --backup-point="x.x.x.x:22:/vmfs/volumes/datastore/backup" --backup-type=custom --backup-vms="vmname" --host=x.x.x.x --backup-prog=rsync:z --date-dir=yes --smtp-auth=none --mail-from=servername@domain.com --mail-to=mail@company.com --smtp-srv=x.x.x.x --smtp-port=25 --smtp-usr=any --smtp-pwd=any

Some additional information:
Srv1: runs VM's, have xsibackup-pro installed and licensed
Srv2: have xsibackup-pro installed and licensed. xsibackup-cron runs from this host, but connects to srv1 to run the above command.

How do we get rid of the size limitations?
