Permission pro 312
I continue to struggle with my goal of migrating to a new pro 312 from my ultra plus. I created a share on my volume and then rysnc'd a share from my ultra plus. Then to test I swap host names for t...
rsync isn't making up the uid/gid - it is attempting to preserve the owner/group of the source files (e.g., on the ultra). In the case of backup 3, it is using the uid/gid for nobody/nogroup on the ultra - which is likely what the source share is set to.
Resetting permission/ownership from the web ui should ripple through, but the problem will recur every time you run the backup. If this is a pure backup, the one option is to ignore it. If you don't care about ownership on the source, you could also change the file ownerships on the ultra to admin/admin which will map.
You might also try using the backup option to reset ownership. Though that also had an issue when I tried it (pre-RN102 launch) - the backup job picked up the current ownership of the share (when the backup was already completed and the damage done). Hopefully that has been fixed.
