Backup Status: Fail: destination cannot be mounted on the sy
Hello, I have configured a ReadyNAS 104 (6.1.8 ) to backup to a Windows 7 share (using remote:Windows/NAS). The "Test Connection" works correctly however the actual back fails giving an error: -...
Sorry for the delay ... I have been struggling in my attempt to resolve this issue ....
From a CMD prompt on Omega I can successfully ping "ping gxfiles1"
I have configured five "remote: Windows/NAS (timestamp)" backups
All of which correctly pass the account credentials Test.
Over the past weeks, on one occasion the backup worked partially, backing up 64 folders, 480 files, 8.55GB (FLAC music files), however, the NAS has over 400 folders, 4k files and 90GB.
Today, I deleted this folder from Omega and started again.
Currently, the four small Shares backup correctly, (the largest Share has 4k files at around 3GB).
The larger Share, starts to back up. Then after around 50 files (300MB approx.) it reports "Error backup job "Music": destination is read-only"
Further attempts enable a similar small number of files to be backed up.
It is as if either the NAS or PC are becoming overloaded somehow.
Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks ... Andrew
