Receiving frequent [Error] Snapshot initialization failed

Hi guys.

So I've learned to carefully configure my backup jobs so that nothing is writing to the NAS while a Replicate job is running, but I'm still getting job failures with message "[Error] Snapshot initialization failed" on a fairly frequent basis.

What else could cause this?

Thanks

Where did you find information regarding the error, "Snapshot initialization failed"? I am also getting this error and would like to know what is going on.

I also get [Warning] Using a relayed connection, consider setting up port forwarding. I thought the beauty of Replicate was p2p??

I have the backup job results emailed to me - I think it sends an email by default.

I also get the warning about the relayed connection and also don't understand it either......
