Backing up to ReadyNAS Vault some files/folders are not backed up
We have a backup from a ReadyNAS 524X running firmware 6.9.3 backing up to a ReadyNAS Vault.
On some of the backups, when new folders are created but not all, files in those folders are not backed-up. In ReadyNAS Vault the folders are present, but they are empty, even though in the REadyNAS there are files in the folders.
Adding a file or folder one level above the folder backs up perfectly, but when those same files or folders are moved into the folder that is not backing up, they do not appear. There are no exceptions in the back-up settings. This only happens with some folders and it seems to be random where it does and where it does not happen.
What worked in the end was upgrading the vault software running on the ReadyNAS - see this article.
But beware, when I upgraded the ReadyNAS OS, it seemed to overwrite the update, and I had to update it again.

Of course that should work.
I am wondering if you tried resetting the file ownership and permissions on the share? That should reset permissions recursively, which might solve the problem.
