CrashPlan on Ultra 6 plus OS 6.7.1
I had to factory default my system so I upgraded it OS 6.7.1 and here is the current way to install crashplan 4.8.2.
Not sure if it is the best way but this seems to keep the load off of the small root volume and keeps it on the large data volume
1. Create a working directory, /data/CrashPlan 2. Download Linux CrashPlan and copy to /data/CrashPlan: 1. SSH into the NAS 2. cd /data/CrashPlan 3. tar -xvf CrashPlan_4.8.2_Linux.tgz 3. You need to install some packages to get things working: 1. apt-get install dialog 2. dpkg-reconfigure debconf 3. Set the debconf level to “dialog” and “medium” 4. It turns out the pre-installed version of cpio doesn’t quite cut it.. Replace it: 1. apt-get remove busybox-cpio 2. apt-get install cpio 5. Time to install CrashPlan: 1. cd /crashplan-install 2. ./install.sh 6. Enter the information below: 1. CrashPlan will install to: /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan 2. And put links to binaries in: /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/bin 3. And store data in: /data/CrashPlan/Backups 4. Your init.d dir is: /etc/init.d 5. Your current runlevel directory is: /etc/rc5.d 7. Important directories: 1. Installation: /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan 2. Logs: /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan/log 3. Default archive location: /data/CrashPlan/Backups 4. Readme: /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan/doc 5. Start Scripts: /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan/bin/CrashPlanEngine start|stop 8. Reset debconf to non-interactive: 1. dpkg-reconfigure debconf 2. Noninteractive 3. Medium 9. Move the logs: https://support.code42.com/CrashPlan/4/Troubleshooting/Reassigning_Cache_Folder_To_A_Different_Directory 1. /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan/bin/CrashPlanEngine stop 2. Edit /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan/conf/my.service.xml 3. Change to: a. <cachePath>/data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan/cache</cachePath> b. <javaMemoryHeapMax>2048m</javaMemoryHeapMax> c. <serviceHost>0.0.0.0</serviceHost> 4. /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan/bin/CrashPlanEngine start 10. Configure GUI - Must be same version 1. On NAS - /var/lib/crashplan/.ui_info a. Select the key between the port and the IP - 4243,KEYINFO,0.0.0.0 2. On the PC - C:\ProgramData\CrashPlan\.ui_info a. Replace the key with the one from the NAS 11. Profit #Starting,Stopping CrashPlan. /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan/bin/CrashPlanEngine stop /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan/bin/CrashPlanEngine status /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan/bin/CrashPlanEngine start /data/CrashPlan/usr/local/crashplan/bin/CrashPlanEngine restart
