Can't get ReadyNAS 212 working with ReadyNAS Vault
Running a ReadyNAS 212 on Firmware 6.10.2 (latest). I had it set up with ReadyNAS vault to do continuous backups. That suddenly stopped working (files "last modified" date just stayed the same). I copied all the files to a local drive, deleted the backup, turned off vault, and turned it on again. Then I logged back in through the 212.
Now I go to Vault > Backup Settings > Manage Backups and from the dropdown choose "NAMEOFMYNAS" and I get a banner that says "No Backup Config. Please install the client application on the device."
I have no idea how to install the client application on the device. It's turned on under the "Cloud" tab. There's no app for Vault in the "Apps" tab. Some help documentation shows a vault tab under the "Backup" tab but that is not the case for the 212 on 6.10.2. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks - updating the Vault software on the NAS using this link has resolved this:

Hello,
I've got the same problem.
I have a ReadyNas 312 Firmware 6.10.2.
I have enabled the ReadyNas Vault and connected it with my account,
then clicked on the "ReadyNas Vault" and tried to install a backup job.
After that I got the error message: No Backup Config. Please install the client application on the device.
Thanks for your help.
Best regards
Andre

Did you ever get this sorted? I have exactly the same issue. Like you, I saw an illustration online of a VAULT tab under the BACKUP tab of the NAS, but it is not there on my NAS even after I login to the Vault under the CLOUD tab.
Thanks so much!

Hi - sorry about the delay - we just got wind of this thread.
Please do either use the link or just write to us at support@readynasvault.com. The inbound email will automatically create a trackable ticket.
At a high level, we just need to help you update to the latest version of the Vault software. From the device, all you need to do is login, which will register a new device or authenticate and connet an existing one. Then all configuration can be done via the web at https://vault.readynasvault.com/.
Please be sure to include the email address of your Vault account if you already have one.
Thanks - and looking forward to getting this resolved for you as quickly as possible.
Best,
ReadyNAS Vault Team
