Integration with Readynas Vault

Hi. My name is Aaron. I work for Vault Services, makers of the ReadyNAS vault.

Can you please clarify a little bit on this sentence:
"I'd like to be able to pull the source from the vault instead of having to reupload them from my readynas (ineffect twice) - this should in turn determine the actual source folder on the nas" What do you mean exactly?

Are you interested in a "sync" feature where files uploaded to his ReadyNAS Vault account are synced backed to his NAS?

Thanks,

Aaron

Since this post in in the Photos2 sub-forum, sounds like he wants Photos/Vault working together, so he doesn't waste 2x the space to back files up. More like having a symlink between Photos2 and Vault.

Depending on how Photos II is architected, there may be a simple workaround to connect them.

Does any one know what path Photos II uses to store the files? Photos II experts - let us know please!

If so, all the user needs to do is add a backup job with this path as the root. Then they can use the Photos II add-on and the contents will all get backed up.

Also, if the path is consistent, the Vault team can pre-create a backup job (disabled by default) that covers the path. That way, all new users can just enable the job to get it going.

I believe it is /c/.RNP2/

Thanks Chirpa -- you saved me some poking around. I'll check it out and re-post here when I have an update...

Thanks for the responses.

Basically I'd like to access photos II but instead of having to upload the pics into is - pick up the ones I have already synced up to the vault.

If only to save bandwidth.

Ideally if you could do it so that any pics you load into photos 2 also sync across to the nas then to the vault then this would be spectacular

Hi there,

I went ahead and created a tutorial on how to backup your Photos II files to the Vault. Here that is: https://readynasvault.zendesk.com/entri ... -the-vault

Let me know if you have any further questions,

Aaron

I think Aaron's post (see above) should do the trick for @devilsrear .

Be advised - the tutorial he posted has two important pieces (both what to include and what to exclude - you probably don't want/need to back up the application logs, which are constantly updating and changing).

Curious to see how it goes for you...

Hi

Thanks for the responses - brilliant exactly what I'm after
