ReadyNAS OS6 nightly backup schedule

Hi!

 

On my previous ReadyNAS pro 4 I could use full night schedule: 19pm to 4am

But on ReadyNAS OS6 (currently 6.9.0) doesn't allow me to do this. My RSYNC backup need to run for hours at night (slow internet connection and some GB)

 

New limitation? Any way to implement this?

    Hi Hernexto,

     

    You can also setup a schedule for your Rsync backup on the ReadyNAS OS6. You may check this link on how to configure the backup schedule.

     

    Regards.

      Sorry but I'm already using that method, and that's the point:

      It doesn't allow to specify an initial hour greater than the ending one.

        That time range isn't when the backup can run - it's when the backup is allowed to start.  Once started it runs to completion.

         

        So the restriction isn't as big a problem as you are thinking.
