ReadyNAS 6.7.1 and Google Drive Cloud Sync
Bidirectional sync with Google Drive Cloud does not seem to work. On the Bidirectional setting it only syncs from the NAS to Google Drive Cloud but not the other way round. I did some tests with ...
No response to my query either - It makes no sense for what is advertised as Google drive backup to not back up all files. The Gdoc and other files are exactly the same concept as the .docx xlsx family etc . This selective bahviour is not advertised and there is no list of exclusions published. I can't see why they are excluded and other vendors include them. It makes the Google Backup app unfit for purpose. I've noted elsewhere that the 'Beta' label has disappeared from the top level page but is still on the pages when you open up the app.. so let's see if anyone cares this month:
1. Is this Beta or Released software ?
2. What files are excluded from backup
3. What is the rationale for this unique behaviour ? The One drive function for example takes docx and xlsx files
4. What are the plans and roadmap for future development of this particular App ?
Surely we are not the only people in the world with this problem ?
3.
Seeing i had a number of servers running ubuntu that i think netgear os is based on, When time exist i might attempt to fix it myself using ssh and make a guide if i succeed that is if the normal commands to list folders etc want to play ball ,but its sad Netgear not fixt this or even responded, a sync should not be selective it should simple sync whatever u want to have in your cloud
Hopefully this is fixt next os update
