Hello all, I know this is possibly laughable. I work at a small business that cannot afford an enterprise backup solution. I have installed ESXi 6.7 successfully on a new server. I have 3 other ESXi 6.0 systems that are backed up by MKSBackup. Does anyone know if MKSBackup can even backup version 6.7? I see the documentation goes to version 5, but it is running fine in 6.0.
When MKSBackup starts it attempts to connect to the server and errors out.
The backup errors with the following:
ERR File "paramiko\transport.pyc", line 1546, in run
File "paramiko\transport.pyc", line 1618, in _negotiate_keys
File "paramiko\transport.pyc", line 1731, in _parse_kex_init
ERR SSHException: Incompatible ssh peer (no acceptable kex algorithm)

2019-12-16 12:43:19 ERR parameter "port" : Incompatible ssh peer (no acceptable kex algorithm)
Any information is appreciated.
Thank you!
You need to update the libs where you have MKSbackup running. The error point towards not being compatible with SSH. I think you need to update the Paramiko Python libs;
I guess its not supported on ESXi 6.7. The errors point towards missing Phyton libs. But what are you trying to backup precisely?
For ESXi:
Thanks for your reply. MKSbackup backs up the virtual machines that reside on ESXi. Do you think the python libs reside on the server or workstation side off the top of your head?

No problem!
Hi all,
Running into the same problem. MKSBackup is running on a Windows-machine.
Anybody some more help concerning installation of these paramiko-libraries ?
