SMB/CIFS - backup job failed - unable to open ... - Stale file handle

Hello, fyi I have the very same problem "ERROR: Backup of VM xxx failed - unable to open '/mnt/pve/<share of MyCloudEx2>/dump/vzdump-qemu-<something>.tmp/qemu-server.conf' - Stale file handle". Manually writing files from within the shell works fine.
I also use the MyCloud Ex2 Ultra. Solution for now is "options noserverino" and a restart of the host. Hope this will fix things in the long term.
Best regards
Daniel

As I already wrote, unfortunately that didn't work for me. I'll just leave it with NFS now. The main thing is that it works, and the network is not publicly accessible anyway.
Thanks for all your efforts :)
 
Hi there, I had the same Error with my WD MyCloud. Seems like with the iput from other posters, I got it working.

Steps:

* Create a user and password set on your NAS
* Switch Samba to v3 only
* switch off oplocks on the share (the directory named after the user you created)
* add cifs share to proxmox (the standard way, no special configuration)
* update /etc/pve/storage.cfg with "options noserverino" at the end of your share
* umount the share on all cluster nodes and wait for it to come back

Now everything was working at least for me and I was not only succeeding an upload for the first time, but also all following backups are running properly.
