Hi,
I am trying to store the DataMiner backup over network using SFTP and it always fails with following error.
2023-04-13 16:00:57|C:\windows\TEMP\Backup.log
2023-04-13 16:00:58|1 errors occurred during backup
2023-04-13 16:00:58|- Creating file remotely failed: Error: Bad Net Name
While using third party tool i am able to copy the file from DataMiner agent to remote SFTP server.
I have tried the following URL in the Network path section:
sftp://username@IpOfSFTP/C%3A/Users/XXX/Backup/
sftp://username@IpofSFTP/C/Users/XXXX/Backup/
sftp:\\username@IpOfSFTP\C%3A\Users\XXX\Backup\
sftp:\\username@IpofSFTP\C\Users\XXXX\Backup\
Would highly appreciate if someone can point me to right documentation or help to fix it.
BR.
Hi Daud,
It is not possible to use an (S)FTP share to store the network backup. Only SMB file shares can be used.
This wasn't properly documented before so could indeed cause some confusion. In the meantime, the docs have been updated and this is now noted in there.
Hi Daud,
I remember I saw a similar question before:
Can we store a DataMiner backup on a SFTP server?
Hope it helps.
