Schedule nsight database backup fail

Schedule nsight database backup fail

Hi community,

I'm trying to schedule a backup of my nsight's database.
I added the following configuration to the nsight server configuration :
code:
database backup database nsight sftp://mylogin:mypass@myserver.domain/nsight-db/ start-date 12/21/2018 start-time 08:15 reoccurrence 168

But each time it is executed, it fails about 3 hours later with the message "scheduled backup for database nsight unsuccessful". I tried adding a filename at the end of the destination of backup but it fails with the same message.

If I execute a one-time backup with the command
code:
database-backup database nsight sftp://mylogin:mypass@myserver.domain/nsight-db/backup.tar.gz

I receive a file named backup.tar.gz of about 7.9GB so I conclued that there is no problem for the nsight server to connect to my server and store the backup.

For information, I'm using a VX9000 version 5.8.6.7-002R

Anyone has an idea on what's wrong ?

Regards,
Romain

Hi Daren,

I can't call this command. Are you sure it exists ?
Here is the possible completion I have :
code:
nsight#show database ?
keyfile Keyfile
statistics Statistics
status Status

Hi Romain

Can you send me the output from the following command?
"show database backup-status detail"
