Making Time Machine work with the ReadyNAS
The step-by-step how-to can be found here.
I have a new ReadyNAS Ultra 4 Plus with RADiator 4.2.15. I enabled Time Machine support in Frontview and was able to select it as a backup target in TM on OS X 10.6.5. But when the backup starts, it spins for several minutes "Making backup disk available...". It correctly shows the capacity of the TM space I have allocated (50GB). But after a few minutes it fails with "The file server NAS2 [the name of the NAS] has closed down." This is the same error I got with the NV+ and I have searched this forum for help with this, to no avail. No sparsebundle is created in the share (which I mounted from Finder.) If I try it again, I will sometimes see "Unable to get status of backup disk".
The documentation for this feature suggests it should "just work". How can I fix this?
