Hello,

are there any known issues with the actual patchlevel of ESXi - or can I install all updates?

Thanks

#2 Re: General matters » Syntax Error after updating ESXi to 6.7 Update 2 » 2019-04-19 10:48:43

The Problem is - I installed the update already.

Can I "deinstall" teh update?

Does anyone know if VMWARE is aware of the problem? Will the make a patch?

Hello,

how can I change the layout of the eMail notification.

In an older (free) version it was possible. In the 11.2.3 I can´t find it anymore,

Thanks

I already found the command line - and it worked.

But why does the gui always quits?

Hello,

If I use xsibackup with a cron job I get the error message: /vmfs/volumes/datastore1/xsi-dir/xsibackup: line 3445: arithmetic syntax error

But if I use xsibackup manually everything works perfect.

The ESXi Server has full access to the nfs share on the backup server - so this can not be the problem.

This is my xsibackup-cron file:

"/vmfs/volumes/datastore1/xsi-dir/xsibackup" --time="Mon 02:00|Tue 02:00|Wed 02:00|Thu 02:00|Fri 02:00|Sat 02:00|Sun 02:00" --backup-point="vmfs/volumes/backup" --backup-type=running --date-dir=yes --backup-room=3000 --mail-from=mail@gmx.de --mail-to=infra@web.de --smtp-srv=mail.gmx.net --smtp-port=587 --smtp-usr=mail@gmx.de --smtp-pwd=password --smtp-sec=TLS

--> ERROR

This ist my manual command:

./xsibackup --backup-point=/vmfs/volumes/backup --backup-type=running --date-dir=yes --backup-room=3000 --mail-from=mail@gmx.de --mail-to=infra@web.de --smtp-srv=mail.gmx.net --smtp-port=587 --smtp-usr=mail@gmx.de --smtp-pwd=password --smtp-sec=TLS

--> everything is perfect :-)

Can anyone help me?

Thanks

Mark
