remote rsync not found

It appears like the script assumes the existence of a "datastore1"

[root@BLUE:/vmfs/volumes/53bfff9d-7c46de0d-9c45-00e081d04c38/xsi-dir] cat ./backup.sh
./xsibackup --backup-point="10.10.10.98:22:/vmfs/volumes/3TB/BACKUP/213w" --backup-type="custom" --backup-vms="Centos7" --date-dir=yes --backup-prog=rsync

[root@BLUE:/vmfs/volumes/53bfff9d-7c46de0d-9c45-00e081d04c38/xsi-dir] ./backup.sh

xsibackup-rsync needs to be copied/updated in the remote server
mkdir: can't create directory '/vmfs/volumes/datastore1/': Operation not permitted

Done!

Can this remote xsibackup-rsync path location be customised?

Thanks

Yes, just change the [b]xsidefaultpath[/b] variable at the begining of the script.

xsidefaultpath="/vmfs/volumes/datastore1/xsi-dir"

Thanks that did the trick!

I suppose I will have to modify this again once a new version is released.

Thanks again.

Re: remote rsync not found

[b]xsidefaultpath[/b] is now definable in the conf/[b]xsiopts[/b] general configuration file or at runtime, by setting the [b][https://33hops.com/xsibackup-help-man-page.html#remotexsipath]--remote-xsipath[/url][/b] argument.
