Duo/NV+ V2 Auto-shutdown on UPS low-battery
I have a NV+ V1 (Sparc) which is giving me headaches trying to back it up. Therefore I'm looking at purchasing a Duo V2 or NV+ V2 to serve as my new home NAS. However I was looking at the comparison...
Thanks mdgm.
The problem I'm having backing up may be due to the NV+v1 running an older version of the firmware (an update requires moving all of the data off of it), the external USB enclosures (NexStar MX with both Raid 1 and JBOD). When I use rsync on the NV+v1 to backup the c volume I either run out of space on the USB enclosures, or the USB enclosures "randomly" unmount. Both enclosures are formated ext3 using Frontview. So rather than "fight" the Sparc based NV+v1 to the death, I bought the Duo V2 and will migrate everything to it. Then I'll upgrade the NV+v1, see how it behaves, how the external enclosures behave on the Duo and decide if I want to use the NV+v1 as the backup target.
