Many thanks, that has moved it on significantly but still have an error.
Its not picking up the custom request to backup a specified VM:



./xsibackup --backup-point=/vmfs/volumes/datastore1/Backups  --host=10.0.2.230    --remote-xsipath="."   --backup-type=custom --backup-vms="SECURE31-NoCert" --mail-to=a@b.com --use-smtp=1 --backup-prog=vmkfstools

#3 Re: General matters » Size limitations still apply after activating with license.key » 2018-03-13 17:15:13

How do I get a Licence key using vmnic1 ( second interface)

I am using vmnic0 for hardened external links and vmnic1 with local lan private addressing for admin/backup etc

#4 Re: General matters » remote backup not working » 2018-03-13 16:40:13

I am experiencing a very similar situation but on 10.3.1, have setup the licence file in case that was an issue

Still not working:

/vmfs/volumes/568a690c-c4e5b092-321a-00238b775fbe/xsi-dir # ./xsibackup --backup-point=10.0.2.230:/vmfs/volumes/datastore1/Backups --host=10.0.2.230    --remote-xsipath="."   --backup-type=custom --backup-vm
