Sorry mistyped.

I have upgraded my DSM to the latest and just was also using the latest binary and it still gives the same error.

I have configured the Synology NAS to allow SSH and then attempted to run ./xsibackup root@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:22.

The command fails with the following:

Could not determine system type at: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Error description: can't exchange key

Thanks for getting back to me.

Its currently and AIO solution so the FreeNAS is running on the ESXi server which then mounts the FreeNAS volume within ESXi as a datastore.

I will see if I can come up with a better solution utilising VMFS volumes instead.

Sorry, the underlying filesystem is ZFS and I am using ESXi version 6.7.0 and build 9484548.

Up until now I have been using XSITools as the backup program without issue and have recovered several VM's without issue.

Thanks

They are hosted on an NFS file share from a FreeNAS server. They have been working without issue until the upgrade yesterday.

I just upgraded from 11.0.3 to 11.1.3 and now my backups are failing with the following error:

What have I done wrong?

The command works fine when run from the command line and will create the required folders and repos but it appears as if the cron does not run whenever it needs to create a new folder.

Is this possible?

KO is just OK reversed meaning it didn't work.

Use the ESXi client and go into the Snapshot Manager for the relevant VM and delete any snapshots.  If you run the command again it should then work.

I am using the following crontab entry to run my backups and it works perfectly when I initially create the repo.  The command should change the folder every week but at the start of a new week the new repo is not created and the cron command does not run.  There is no entry for it in the log file.

This is the command:

"/vmfs/volumes/SamsungSSD/xsi-dir/xsibackup" --time="Mon 01:05|Tue 01:05|Wed 01:05|Thu 01:05|Fri 01:05|Sat 01:05|Sun 01:05" backupId=00 --backup-room=100 --backup-point="/vmfs/volumes/ExchangeQnapBkUp/backups/DomainController/$(date +%Y%U)" --mail-to=xxx@xxx.xxx.xx --use-smtp=1 --backup-how=hot --backup-type=custom --backup-vms=DomainController --backup-prog=xsitools:z --on-success="backupid->01" --on-failure="backupid->01"

Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?  I would like it to make a new repo every week.
