Incomplete backups after recent firmware update (ReadyNas NV+) 4.1.15

Hi I had the system run perfectly with no issues until it informed me of the 4.1.15 update. I went ahead with the update and now backups are incomplete. It stops around folders starting with M. To make matters worse, the backups are reported as successful. I checked older backups and they did not have a problem. Is it possible for me to downgrade back to the old firmware update? I am not sure which one I had before though and I don't know how to find that out. Model: ReadyNAS NV+ [X-RAID] Serial: 23J5127N0033D Firmware: RAIDiator 4.1.15 [1.00a043]

  • Does it behave differently if you select Remote: Windows/NAS (Timestamp) ?

    Maybe try resetting owners/permissions for the share before you try downgrading (using whatever options are appropriate for you)

    You can downgrade, I don't recall off-hand where the old version is saved in the logs. You could try downloading the log zip, and searching them.

      I couldn't find that screen. I assumed it would be under security, but i looked in all of them. Where would it be?

      Nevermind about the previous comment. I found it and it is exactly as your screenshot.

       

      After checking the log I found that the system seems to have worked for a while after the upgrade date that is specified in the logs.

      What else could it be? I'd like to avoid having to write my own script to do the backup.

        Try resetting the owners/permissions.

         

        Perhaps also give us the screenshots of the backup job configuration (you can color over any confidential information).
