hello
i am trying to restore new server with dar2 and i get this error message in the log file :
 
srvback e-smith-bg: Connecting /mnt/dar2/backup to \\192.168.10.245\Download
srvback e-smith-bg: Expanding /etc/dar2/backup template
srvback e-smith-bg: Error locating /srvback.server.local/backup dir

why does it trying to locate the full server name ?
thanks

why does it trying to locate the full server name ?

Because that is where it saved the backup file originally.
You need to create the same folder structure, path & names if you are restoring from a different location.

thank you janet
what is needed to be done before restoring is to configure the server with the same configuration, FQDN.
after that everything went well
thanks again janet
