I reconnected and checked the history and this is what I see: So it looks like it is having a hard time keeping the CP service running on the NAS.

I recently ran into this also (and needed to apply my own solution :slap: ). I suspect I hit some threshold related to directory depth which caused CP to run out of memory.

You don't get any meaningful error report from CrashPlan if this happens, so you do need to monitor what it is doing by logging in with the client from time to time.
