¡Hi!
I'm trying to evaluate xsibackup as a tool for use at our company, trying to backup two virtual machines and one stopped, i get some error messages.

These are the virtual machines as reported by esxi-cli 6.0:

[root@comansa-esxi50:/vmfs/volumes/649016b3-f84bd0ca-4b3a-0c4de9b80892/XSI/XSIBackup-DC] vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms
Vmid               Name                                                               File                                                                                   Guest OS                 Version   Annotation
1      Windows 7 x64 v3                   [datastore1] Windows 7 x64 v3/Windows 7 x64 v3.vmx                                  windows7_64Guest   vmx-11             
2      Windows 10 x64 GoodSync   [datastore1] Windows 10 x64 GoodSync/Windows 10 x64 GoodSync.vmx    windows9_64Guest   vmx-10             
5      Odoo v8 desarrollo                 [datastore1] Odoo v8 desarrollo/Odoo v8 desarrollo.vmx                                   ubuntu64Guest      vmx-11     

This is the command i issue to perform the backup of the powered on virtual machine named "Windows 10 x64 GoodSync" '/vmfs/volumes/JJ Sisko VMFS/VMs" I would like to understand what is wrong and how to overcome it.
Thanks in advance.


[root@comansa-esxi50:/vmfs/volumes/649016b3-f84bd0ca-4b3a-0c4de9b80892/XSI/XSIBackup-DC]  ./xsibackup --backup "/vmfs/volumes/datastore1/Windows 10 x64 GoodSync" '/vmfs/volumes/JJ Sisko VMFS/VMs'

And this is the answer of xsibackup
