Hi
I have 3 Nodes. 2 on Windows and 1 on linux. I want to try the snapshoting feature. As far as I know I have to set the path.repo
on every node. So I created the network drive e which is on the PC Scot
YML:
- Windows1
path.repo: ["\\\\SCOT\\e\\SnapshotTesting"]
- Windows2
path.repo: ["\\\\SCOT\\e\\SnapshotTesting"]
- Linux:
I mounted SCOT with:sudo mount.cifs //IPofScot/e/SnapshotTesting /mnt/share -o user=user
With this I can access the SnapshotTesting with/mnt/share
.
So I setpath.repo: /mnt/share
Now I tried the following API (on Windows1):
localhost:9200/_snapshot/my_backup2
{
"type": "fs",
"settings": {
"location": "\\\\SCOTTY\\e\\SnapshotTesting"
}
}
But I get the following error:
'RemoteTransportException[[batman_node3][172.22.23.72:9300][internal:admin/repository/verify]]; nested: RepositoryException[[my_backup2] cannot create blob store]; nested: FileSystemException[**/mnt/share/\\\\SCOT\\e\\SnapshotTesting**: The argument is invalid];']]"
Why does it mix up the 2 paths? How can I fix this?
Thanks,
