Installation questions.

Saludos!

I have finally gotten around to installing the Pro version we bought in March. This was on our new VMWare server (v6.7) that has never had XSI installed. I also installed to the old server that had the free version before. The idea is to copy vital VMs from the nex to the old each night.

I have a few questions so far:

The installer said this:

Applying permissions to files...
-----------------------------------------------------
The software has been installed and permissions were applied
-----------------------------------------------------
Do you want to execute (c)XSIBackup now (yes/no): yes
-----------------------------------------------------
/scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro/xsibackup: line 71: writeout: not found
/scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro/xsibackup: line 72: writeout: not found
/scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro/xsibackup: line 73: writeout: not found
###########################################################################
#                XSIBACKUP-PRO: END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT                #
###########################################################################

Can I ignore the three "not found" lines? Got this on both servers

When I start it with /scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro/xsibackup
It says XSIBACKUP-FREE 11.2.19?

On our old server, the installation seems to have added it to the path automatically, ie I could just type "xsibackup", now I have to use the full path

When I try running a backup from the new server to the old, ie:

[root@ESXI34:/tmp] /scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro/xsibackup --backup-point="10.0.20.36:22:/vmfs/volumes/Storage2TB/back
up" --backup-type=custom --backup-vms="DEV01" --backup-prog=Onediff

The copy errors out with:
Info: transfering file | /vmfs/volumes/datastore1/DEV01/DEV01_1-flat.vmdk
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Info: activate your (c)XSIDiff license to boost transfer speed
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Excluded disks removed from backup .vmx file

Any ideas?

Edit:
Adding --remote-xsipath="/scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro" fixed the file transfer error.

Re: Installation questions.

No, you can't ignore errors, you are missing files, it looks like you have mixed XSIBackup-Free and XSIBackup-Pro files on the other one.
You can install to one server and from there backup up to 19 additional ones, you don't need to install to each individual server apart from the license not allowing it.

Please, remove XSIBackup from both servers and install to one of them, then link the master server to the secondary one.

./xsibackup --link-srv=1.2.3.4:22

And lauch backups in the second server by using the --host argument. The GUI also allows to create remote jobs.

Re: Installation questions.

OK. The link you provided in your reply is broken. Should I use the GUI remove under tools? So I should just install in the new VMWare server, right?

Edit: You mean this link?

Re: Installation questions.

OK. I tried the uninstall under Tools in the GUI and got this:

/scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro/src/pro/menu/main: line 181: /scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro/bin/dialog: not found
/scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro/src/pro/menu/main: line 171: /scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro/bin/dialog: not found
/scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro/src/pro/menu/main: exec: line 176: /scratch/XSI/XSIBackup-Pro/src/pro/menu/main: not found
[root@ESXI34:/tmp]

So I used the manual method and deleted the scratch dir. Crap! I should not have done so..

Re: Installation questions.

You obviously need to change the paths in the examples by your own paths.
Check the commands to find out what they do: remove the installation dir, remove the cronlines at /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root and the entries in /etc/rc.local.d/local.sh
Do not worry, you can easily repair your installation if you removed something important.

Re: Installation questions.

Yes, but I was stupid and removed the symlink to scratch... Can I just recreate it?

Edit: Ah. It is recreated on boot

Re: Installation questions.

Yes, ESXi OS is not persistent. In any case a quick reinstall would solve it if it went beyond what a reboot can fix.

Re: Installation questions.

OK. The offending lines are:

    "$PWD"/bin/xsidiff --request-license
    writeout "A request.key file has been generated in the root of the installation dir"
    writeout "You can use this request.key file to get a license for your (c) XSIDiff binary"
    writeout "Login here with your registered e-mail address: \e[1mhttps://33hops.com/user-login.html\033[0m"

Not that I understand why, but it does not seem to be fatal?

Re: Installation questions.

We don't know what's going on, just what you are telling us.

writeout is a function that should be accessible, that error is not normal and should not be overlooked, as it's telling you something is wrong indeed.

Installing (c)XSIBackup is extremely easy, you just need to make sure you remove everything to avoid mixing files, then install again.

Re: Installation questions.

Yes. I had no difficulty installing the free version in the past on another server and yes, I have wiped everything and reinstalled. I have tried to provide as much info as possible.

When I installed, I did this:
Copied the files to /tmp
Ran the installer: chmod 0700 install && ./install
Answered the questions

From what I see, writeout is defined in src/functions. I have this:

May I emphasize that this server has never had any other version of XSIBackup installed!

Could it be a PATH issue?

Re: Installation questions.

Any news here? XSIBackup appears to run fine. I have created and scheduled jobs and the logs are fine, but those errors when installing are worrying me.

Re: Installation questions.

We can't reproduce your issue, our tests of the install routine shows no errors regarding any missing writeout function.
Nonetheless the writeout function is all over the software, if it was missing you couldn't run anything.

[root@esxi1:/tmp] ./install

Re: Installation questions.

Yes. You are right. I cannot make the error show up again. I tried running the installer four times. I guess the problem resolved itself and yes, as everything else works, then it must be able to find writeout.

Re: Installation questions.

Please, note this thread corresponds to an old software edition - (c)XSIBackup Classic - which has been deprecated. Use our latest software edition: (c)XSIBackup-DC and refer to its manual to backup your (c)ESXi VMs as of 2021

Re: Installation questions.

OK. Noted. FWIW has your software worked flawlessly since September last year, but we will evaluate an upgrade.

Re: Installation questions.

The above is just a note to users coming to the post from search engines. If the software is running fine for you, let it do its work, upgrade only when you need to.
