Description
mindi-busybox_1.18.5-2
mindi_2.1.2-1
mondo_3.0.2-1
The same backup is conducted to the NFS share. Specifying it at the command line works OK. Specifying it in the GUI does not work. In both cases the remote NFS is mounted on the system to be backed-up at /mnt/nfs via an entry in fstab.
Create Backup Via Command Line
Command Issued:
mondoarchive -O -n nfs://192.168.2.104: -d /mondo -p mondoverass -G -4 -s 4480m -N -I "/bin" -E "|/mnt/nfs|/home|"
Result=Success
Logs:
mindi.log.CLI.success
mondoarchive.log.CLI.success
Create Backup Via Command Line
Responses to prompts:
Backup to = Net Mount
Network shared dir = 192.168.2.104:/
Type of compression = gzip
How much compression = Average
ISO Size = 4480
Protocol to use = nfs
Remote share to mount = 192.168.2.104:/
Which user to use = blank
At this point an error message is obtained
"Please mount that partition before you try to backup or restore from it."
Result=Fail
Logs:
mindi.log.GUI.fail
mondoarchive.log.GUI.fail
I have tried many permutations of info in the GUI but none are successful. The one shown above is only one of many variations.
It seems odd that via CLI can use the mounted (or unmounted) remote share but via GUI seems unable to use it mounted or not.
