Incremental backup
Hello, I can't get working an incremental backup (type, remote) on my ReadyNAS. Always makes a full backup so (not enough space) message comes out. Thanks
Hello,
Yes, sorry.
Model: ReadyNas 104
Firm: 6.2.5
Backup SOURCE
Backup type: Windows Remote Folder
HOST: Local IP
Backup DESTINATION
Type: Share
Backup OPTIONS
First Time
Errors only
Thanks
Thanks, that helps.
You say that doing the full backup runs out of space - is that because you have snapshots / bit rot protection enabled on the ReadyNAS destination share?
The backup method you are chosing uses the file timestamps for incremental backup. Sometimes that can misbehave (SAMBA on the NAS might not have exactly the same timestamp granularity as your source). One thing you can try is switching to Windows (archive bit) and see if that solves it.
Hi,
Yes, Source backup was using the method Windows/timeStamps, I will change to archive bit and see if this solves the problems.
Thanks a lot for your support.
Regards
