Hi Team, been using XSIBackup Free and PRO for a long time now.

We have purchased and renewed the current PRO version.

My question is about the following: I have sucessfully installed the new PRO version, I have submitted the keys (check user sgalera...) and then I downloaded the site generated new xxxxxxlicense.key file. Meanwhile I created a job and launched it locally (and it is currently running) .

Upon the first VM being backed up I noticed by the XSIDiff Alert that indicates that I forgot to copy the license.key file to the xsi-dir (i know, its a PRO and the actual installation dir is /scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro/) and then I did copy the file while the job is still running. Since the key file is in place and the message appeared once every VM copy start, I expected this time on the next VM being copied the license.key file were recognized.

To my surprise the Alert message is still showing and the copies are being done with RSync... (sloooowly) Do I have to wait until the next job run to see the changes? or is there something I missed like a process restart or similar. Can you add an alert on the XSI PRO version while using the GUI that XSIDiff is still unactivated and not allowing the XSIDiff selection as backup method, on the GUI job build process? Also could you add to the GUI an easy way to kill the current running task?

Thanks for your time reading this and sorry for the long email. I hope I made my point.
Thanks for your excellent products!
