  • 1.  Management Server backup - Synology NAS (NFS - SMB Shares)

    Posted Jul 13, 2020 11:28 AM

    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.

    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.
