I have created a SMB and NFS share to contain the Vcenter Management server backup and i cannot connect to the share via the Management interface. The interface give the error "Access to the backup server is denied - Check your credentials" .
Both shares have been tested, as i can connected to each of them via NFS and SMB by mouting them on a linux machine with the following commands
#SMB Share
//IP Address/backup /mnt/backup cifs vers=2.0,username=admin,password=adminpaassword,uid=1024,gid=100,iocharset=utf8,rw
OR
#NFS Shares
IP address:/volume1/backup /mnt/backup nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,timeo=14,intr
I am also able to connect to these shares via Windows.
Can someone let me know of how i can fix this? ans also the filename and location of the log that records theses attempts. maybe there is more info there.
Thank you in advance.
Moderator: Thread moved to the vCenter Server area.
This was a bug and has been resolved with the release of 7.0.1.00100 on 21OCT2020. Upon restart of the appliance backups for both SMB and NFS work normally again.
