I'm getting the same error after an upgrade to 6.0b3. I did have Darrel May's dmc-mitel-flexbackup-0.0.1-2.noarch.rpm installed on the 5.6 server, but it is not on this one.
The email status report for flexbackup gives the following:
flexbackup version 1.1.7 (
http://flexbackup.sourceforge.net)
/etc/flexbackup.conf syntax OK
Errors:
$erase_tape_set_level_zero not defined
Backup terminated: backup failed - status: 256
Here's what I have installed:
flexbackup-1.1.7-1es
e-smith-flexbackup-1.8.0-01
e-smith-backup-1.12.1-02
How can I tell what the right versions are?
[root@gluon root]# cat /etc/flexbackup.conf
