Unsure how to link an external server for backup
-
Using XCPNG and XO from sources.
I'm migrating my home lab VMs from Unraid to XCP-NG. I'd like to still backup my VMs from XCP-NG to UnraidI've set up a NFS share on Unraid.
When I try to create an NFS share to use in my Storage (SR) pool, I can connect to it no problem.
However when I try to create a backup job to back to this share, XCP-NG states no NFS remotes available.
I go through the process and create a NFS remote on the settings page.
I get this error when saving
"mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 10.69.50.31:/UnraidBackup/XCPNGBackups"
I have made sure NFS share is published on the unraid side and it requires no auth (internal only access)Suggestions?

Settings > Remotesis where you configure the backup targets. -
@Danp yes, I'm getting this error on the settings > remotes page.
As you can imagine, I'm confused why NFS works on the main SR page, but not the settings > remotes page
EDIT: never mind, discovered that I have to put the full share path, not just the share name.
Example:
\\10.69.50.31:Port:/mnt/user/UnraidBackup/XCPNGBackups
