Problem with Replicate across WAN

Are there anyone using these files when being replicated? If a file is modified before finishing the replication, it is normal to get "failed" error message since the original file intended to be copied/replicated has been altered.

Hi admin008,

Check this link then read about Performance Problems and it might help: http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detai ... leshooting

ok - thanks,

I will have a look at the link

and re files being used -- maybe let me check for any other backup jobs on the server

although from the logs the files that are being shown has "failed" are JPG files - that are pretty much static content

OK - this is sorted now

like most problems - there where "wheels within wheels"

my attempts to diagnose and solve the problem were hampered by the fact that IE 11 does not work with netgear replicate portal (tbh I did not try compatibility mode I just used chrome)

IE would not allow me to select the file system of the NAS boxes -so I could not edit the replicated job and simply select resume from an earlier working backup

I could restart the job from scratch - but it was over 450GB big, and did get a "failed error anyway (after a couple of days copying) - which is no great surprise tbh

meanwhile I also got the seemingly very common "cannot locate the P2P local address" - so I was actually going backwards - i.e. the NAS boxes could no longer communicate to one another

I rebooted the local one to me, and got the datacentre to reboot the remote - ran a small test job (using chrome) and it worked!!!

then I edited my main job to resume form an earlier successful job (using chrome as this was not possible with IE) and it worked - copying on the delta 3 odd GB of changes

I am glad that its now working. :D Its good that you post what you did as reference for others.
