SME USB backup will not start
« on: September 16, 2020, 02:57:56 PM »
Hi Friends,

I have a problem, and need to ask for help.
USB backup will not start.
There was an SME upgrade 9.1 -> 9.2, plus a hardware change.
The system migrated easily.
sme 9.1 to usb full backup,
sme 9.2 new install to new hardware
sme 9.2 first start restore usb backup, happy, good working.

Ever since sme 9.2 has been running, the console USB backup has not started ...
Selecting the console Usb full backup option:
Prompts me Insert removable media, then <next>, and again, and again, again ... Insert removable media .. <next>, Insert removable media ... <next>, Insert removable media .. ..

The usb housing, the hdd, the usb connector, the usb port on the server all work. (this is where the installation was done, and also restore). The older SME server also saved for this. But I tried another usb HDD for safety. He's not starting.
Network backup works with DAR.

Where do I look for the bug?

An error flashes on the console screen when you refresh the screen:

Ahhh.... here's the cavalry :-)

How can it work on 9.1, restore to 9.2, and then fail?? Very odd.
