Feb 07, 2018FTP Backup error
Firmware 6.9.2
Occasionally, FTP scheduled backup fails with the errors below. We scheduled the exact FTP backup activities with another client, and everything works: only the ReadyNAS fails.
-------- Backup Job Information -------- Backup Job Name: XXX Backup Job Type: Full Protocol: ftp Backup Source: [remote:ftp]/ftp://xxxx Backup Destination: xxx Backup Start Time: Wed Feb 7 2018 15:05:02 Backup Finish Time: Wed Feb 7 2018 15:09:18 Backup Status: Fail: Connection cannot be established. Check the connection and authentication, if required.
