RSync Backup Local to remote fails
I have configured a Rsync to copy the local data to Remote .Both are RN3312 models and connected across the firewall. Connectivity is OK and when I start the Job, errors are thrown and it fails i...
The usual cause for this is not haviing Rsync write access enabled on the target. The default is read-only.
The check done to verify the connection does not check that the share has write access, it only checks that the target is reachable.
Hi,
I got some rsync problems with 6.10.3 on my NAS. The names i give my NAS-Systems are overwritten within 24 hours in Rsync so that the sync jobs won't work automatically. I got that problem on my RN104 for some time now but it only happens on connection issuses from the power supply. (got aware of it with an USV, still this is my beta tester and has aome other problems too) Now my RN 204 is also making this bad habbit within 24 hours after upgrading to 6.10.3.
Just don't upgrade to this Version if you have an Arm based NAS that works. I think there are more issues with this Version (what i could see in beta Forum). I hope Netgear is working on that Problem cause they haven't made an free beta-test with this software. I try going back to 6.10.2 until this is solved or Netgear gives some Information in the Forum for these Bugs.

FWIW, rsync is working for me. But I've always reserved the IP addresses in the router, and all my backup jobs use the IP address (not the hostname). This practice goes back to the days when my main NAS was the sparc-based NV+.
So you might try switching over to using the IP address and see if that is more stable for you.

Can you explain this a little bit more? Are you saying that the destination device on the backup job page is being changed, or that the actual name of the destination NAS is changing? And to what is it changing?
While I only have one "sandbox" system running 6.10.3, I don't see that problem. But mine is an Intel based NAS, and both of yours are ARM. So, maybe, it's specific to the ARM products. If it were just the 104, I'd say it might me a memory issue, since it has only 512M. But the 204 has 2GB, which should be more than enough..
