ReadyNAS® Pro vs ReadyNas Ultra Plus ??
What exactly are the differences between these two?? I see lots of info on the Ultra and Ultra Plus but less info on the Pro. Thx !!
snapshot is created at the volume level and you must reserve the snapshot space when you first factory initialize your device. Currently there is no way to adjust the snapshot size afterwards.
I think the default is either 5 or 10 gigs.
You want to have a snapshot size that is bigger than the amount of data you expect to change.
In other words, if you expect more than 10 gigs of data to change in between snapshots, you would want to reserve a larger snapshot space.
Once a snapshot is taken, a ready only sharename-snap folder will be created, this is the 'source' for your backup. The destination can be any supported device or server/service (ie you backup the snap to your nv+ via rsync).
snapshots are only supported on 'business' devices, so you need a nvx business or pro business (not a pioneer or ultra model).
you don't need a separate license for any of this.
if you had TWO pro's, you could buy the licence for readynas replicate which is a separate product/addon but essentially makes it very easy to create and manage backup jobs between remote readynas devices, and uses a process similar to the above, making its own snapshots and sending them to a remote readynas.
