It failed again this morning with the same error.

As mentioned, is there a specific timeout for smb shares maybe?

Not too sure why it keeps failing, it hasn't completed its first full backu=
p.

Thanks,
Marc

Subject: SMB Windows share not backing up

Hi,

I have been tasked to backup a Windows share using smb.

The share is massive, its roughly about 6 - 7TB in storage space. I ran its=
 first full backup and it timed out after a week or so, I got the 'aborting=
 backup up after signal ALRM' warning in the logs, so I increased the timeo=
ut to 2 weeks. However, I am now getting the following warning in the logs:

Got fatal error during xfer (No files dumped for share audio)
Backup aborted (No files dumped for share audio)

Do I need to do anything different to the config file for an smb Windows sh=
are?

I'm not sure what the error means, it fails and then immediately starts to =
do a full backup again.

Any ideas, please?
