backup client v2.1.5 armv7 block device image backup failed with "Error: blkgetsize64"
Opened this issue · 1 comments
I have compiled the armv7 backup client from the source code at github. It works great for file backup but failed for block device image mode:
root@odroid:~# proxmox-backup-client.sh backup odroid.img:/dev/mmcblk1 --verbose
Error: blkgetsize64 failed for "/dev/mmcblk1" - EINVAL: Invalid argument

Sorry, but this is not very well supported. I only tested this backuping files, and I still continue to use older release.
