Hello,

Thank you for your Answer.

I have tried running the backup again with the NFS 3 Mount, but I still got the same error.

I also tried the Backup on a local datastore drive, which worked fine. --repair doesn't seem to fix this issue.

Hello,

Thank you for your Answer.

The XSIBackup Version is XSIBackup-DC 1.6.0.6 (Licensed) and ESXI is 7.0 U3.

The Backup was made with the GUI. The Job file contains the following commands:

/vmfs/volumes/63e642dd-d6938d48-cf80-0cc47a687256/XSIBackup-DC/xsibackup \
--backup \
"VMs(VM1,VM2,VM3,VM4,VM5)" \
"/vmfs/volumes/VMWare01/Backups" \
--backup-how="hot" \
>> /vmfs/volumes/63e642dd-d6938d48-cf80-0cc47a687256/XSIBackup-DC/var/log/xsibackup.log 2>&1

The VM Names above are changed. (I had changed the long Path name to VMware01 last time for easier readability, i'll leave that as is now.).

The Backuppath is a Backup folder in our NAS Server. It is mounted via NFS 4.

This was recorded in the log file after my last attempt:

Hello,

I have set XSIBackup on a new VMWare and tried running its first Backup Job, but the following errors occur
when starting the Job:

I have already tried the repair command multiple times to no success.

Im not sure if its related, but I failed the first repair by forgetting a ' at the end of the command and not found myself not being able to cancel the process.
After starting a new SSH session, I couldn't find any running XSIBackup processes using the ps and esxcli system process list command.

Any help would be kindly appreciated.
