The following error appears when a backup job is run. Backup failed: Backup: Vizioncore.vRanger.Domain.Common.PhysicalTargetDevice failed.
The backup process is unable to write to the repository location. vRanger has detected that your local LAN Manager authentication level is set to 'Send NTLMv2 response only\refuse LM & NTLM'. Please change your authentication level to 'Send LM & NTLM responses' and retry the job. Or configure your ESX host to initiate NTLMv2 authentication. This is done by adding/modifying this file on your ESX host:
~/.smb/smb.conf
Append these lines to the file:
[global]
client ntlmv2 auth = yes
Your ESX host will not need to be restarted.
