Thank you for your time and explanation.

I automatically suppose that if the script works directly in command line, it'll work on crontab. I'll try in the weekend to see if works with the correct parameters.

Thanks!

Hi,

I've just installed version 11.0.1 FREE and trying to config to make it work from cron. It seems to all work well, but the backup always save on a datestamp directory format, and creates a "data" directory on same level. My jobs 001 is:

"/vmfs/volumes/datastore1/xsi-dir/xsibackup" \
--time="Sat 6:00" \
--date-dir=no \
--backup-point="/vmfs/volumes/BACKUP" \
--backup-type=custom \
--backup-vms="GRX16" \
--exec=yes

The result is 2 directories. which one with "20180729...." format and another one "data". In old version that not happens, is there some way to fix that?

Thanks in advance.
