Hello, i'm testing new version 11 before using on my servers.
i can't find some options like in 10.x.x.x version.
for example, how to exclude disks of vm, or limit backup space (--backup-room), in graphic mode.


i think need to edit manually job in jobs folder adding some extra option, but work old options?

thanks

[quote=admin]

Which is a Python error, where no Python code is present. This could be a broken installation, have you thought of that possibility?[/quote]

i don't know, because vmware installation isn't done by me, but is from a previous assistance.

but if i return back to 10.1.0 version it works.

Hello,
i have this problem:
i have a vm with 3 disk (100 GB, 150 GB, 500 GB). i want to backup vm only with first 2 disk (250GB in total) excluding 500 gb disk on a another 500 gb datastore.

when xsibackup calculate needed space its conseders all disk and freeze on "attempting to free 718858"

Needed room: 690 Gb.
Sparse size: 769 Gb.
Available room: 557 Gb.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not enough room to make the backup, some older folders will be deleted
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Excerpt
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

but needed room in 300gb no7 718858 mb....

the sintax i have used is:
xsibackup --backup-point="/vmfs/volumes/bkdatastore/vmbackup" --backup-type=custom --backup-vms="win2012!disk3" or
