It seems like the local backup worked this time. Can you try scheduling a FTP backup a few minutes in the future to see if it is going to complete successfully?

Ludmill,

I already knew the local basckups were working (+-) as my disk was filling up fast. Anyway I scheduled it at 23:45. I'll let you know tomorrow hopw it goes. Tested the ftp conection, username password ok, File Upload test ok.

Grtz

Let us know how it works out for you.
You may want to go back in to the /store/backups/nagiosxi folder and delete the failed backup folders to free up some space on the server.

It seems like repairing the database fixed the issue. The backup script should catch this problems and should give a messgae in the scheduled backups component don't you think?

This would be nice - I can file an internal feature request for adding this functionality if you want me to.

Please do and close this thread please. Tx!!
