This has been working well but since 6.10.4 it no longer works and it doesnt appear to have been fixed in 6.10.5 either, so we are constantly backdating the firmware to 6.10.3.
You can work around the rsync issue by setting up backup jobs for each share, instead of backing up the entire NAS with one backup job. All home folders can be done in one backup job.
I don't know of third-party software to back up NAS->NAS, though there are some options for NAS->Cloud.
I'm not sure why you are "constantly backdating" the OS, either. Automatic updates can be disabled.
I am not sure why either, i have unticked checked for OS updates but whenever i log in it messages me that a new OS has been loaded and reboot is necessary to apply it! Now either another admin is allowing it (a few different users can log into the app and i have told all not to do it) or the OS just goes ahead and does it anyway!!!

Make sure "automatic firmware updates" isn't checked on the settings page.
Will try this
