Backup did NOT copy some files, MOVED others
Greetings-
I checked the size and number of files of a fresh backup set and found that it did not match the source. The destination had 1100 files too few.
I used the file/folder compare program called Beyond Compare to read both folders. I found that the backup did NOT copy many files. Also, I noticed that the backup MOVED many files from the source to the destination.
I am using a ReadyNAS Pro2, and running RAIDiator 4.2.24.
Any assistance with this would be appreciated.

- StephenBGuru - Experienced UserWhat backup settings were you using?
- Bill_CTSAspirantThank you for your response, Stephen.
This issue occurred with the same settings that have worked for over a year.
Are there settings that would delete files from the server and not backup other files?
I think I was hoping for info on known issues or the need for a firmware update...
For the moment I have adjusted the files manually, and will monitor this situation. I'll try to remember to post her what i find in case it may be of help to anyone else.
Thanks, Bill - StephenBGuru - Experienced UserI understand that this is a new issue, but without the details of the settings I don't think there's much we can say.
