Re: CrashPlan Cheat Sheet and Tweaks
Is there a way to update Java on the ReadyNAS 102? It looks like the EJRE installer doesn't work for the 102. I'm getting the same issue one of the previous posters with CrashPlan continually downloading the install and filling up the Root partition.

Re: CrashPlan Cheat Sheet and Tweaks
TYPO Error:
b) .uni_info on your desktop is located C:\ProgramData\CrashPlan. (Rename your old .uni_info to .uni_info.orig)
.uni_info should read .ui_info
Thank you StepheB for finding it and pointing it out !

Yes, but its no longer enough. Crashplan 4.5.0 now requires an update to glibc on OS 4.2.x systems. Whocares_ has provided an addon for this - see this thread for more details: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Backing-up-to-your-ReadyNAS/Crashplan-JRE-update-needed/td-p/985781...

Re: CrashPlan Cheat Sheet and Tweaks
CrashPlan versions after 4.3.0 appear to no longer require changes to the .ui_<username>.properties file in order to connect to a headless machine. I've been using the CrashPlan NAS.bat script below to switch the CrashPlan 4.5.0 UI between the local (Windows 10) backup engine (installed "for everyone") and the NAS backup engine:
rem Switch CrashPlan UI to NAS backup servicePort rem Usage: "CrashPlan NAS.bat" <PuTTY-session> <ppk-file> rem Author: gorlen@comcast.net rem rem After installing CrashPlan: rem 1. Copy %ProgramData%\CrashPlan\.ui_info to %ProgramData%\CrashPlan\local.ui_info rem 2. Set permissions on .ui_info to allow full control by intended user(s) rem 3. Copy /var/lib/crashplan/.ui_info from NAS to %ProgramData%\CrashPlan\NAS.ui_info rem 4. Edit NAS.ui_info to change the port number from 4243 to 4200 rem rem Example shortcut: rem Target: "%ProgramFiles%\CrashPlan\CrashPlan NAS.bat" NAS0 gorlen@comcast.net.ppk rem Start in: %ProgramFiles%\CrashPlan rem Run: Minimized set SESSION=%1 set PPK=%2 set CPDIR=%ProgramData%\CrashPlan set PUTTYDIR=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\PuTTY set PPKDIR=%AppData%\PuTTY copy %CPDIR%\NAS.ui_info %CPDIR%\.ui_info start "PuTTY NAS0" /MIN /D "%PUTTYDIR%" ^ "%PUTTYDIR%\pageant.exe" %PPKDIR%\%PPK% ^ -c "%PUTTYDIR%\putty.exe" -load %SESSION% start "" /wait "%ProgramFiles%\CrashPlan\CrashPlanDesktop.exe" taskkill /f /im putty.exe copy %CPDIR%\local.ui_info %CPDIR%\.ui_info

Re: CrashPlan Cheat Sheet and Tweaks
Sounds like 4.5.0 brings a few more niggles to the process... might be time to revise the OP for the latest versions?
Is there any compelling reason to go to 4.5.0 at this point if we are stable and happily running on 4.3.0? I am loathe to break everything again for an incremental update. 😞
Thanks.

Re: CrashPlan Cheat Sheet and Tweaks
Crashplan will push the upgrade anyway, so it likely doesn't matter.

Re: CrashPlan Cheat Sheet and Tweaks
Moments after posting the script, I realized that a small change would allow it to handle more than one NAS (I have only one):
rem Switch CrashPlan UI to NAS backup servicePort rem Usage: "CrashPlan NAS.bat" <PuTTY-session> <ppk-file> rem Author: gorlen@comcast.net rem rem After installing CrashPlan: rem 1. Copy %ProgramData%\CrashPlan\.ui_info to %ProgramData%\CrashPlan\local.ui_info rem 2. Set permissions on .ui_info to allow full control by intended user(s) rem 3. Copy /var/lib/crashplan/.ui_info from NAS to %ProgramData%\CrashPlan\<PuTTY-session>.ui_info rem 4. Edit <PuTTY-session>.ui_info to change the port number from 4243 to 4200 rem rem Example shortcut: rem Target: "%ProgramFiles%\CrashPlan\CrashPlan NAS.bat" NAS0 gorlen@comcast.net.ppk rem Start in: %ProgramFiles%\CrashPlan rem Run: Minimized set SESSION=%1 set PPK=%2 set CPDIR=%ProgramData%\CrashPlan set PUTTYDIR=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\PuTTY set PPKDIR=%AppData%\PuTTY copy %CPDIR%\%SESSION%.ui_info %CPDIR%\.ui_info start "PuTTY %SESSION%" /MIN /D "%PUTTYDIR%" ^ "%PUTTYDIR%\pageant.exe" %PPKDIR%\%PPK% ^ -c "%PUTTYDIR%\putty.exe" -load %SESSION% start "" /wait "%ProgramFiles%\CrashPlan\CrashPlanDesktop.exe" taskkill /f /im putty.exe copy %CPDIR%\local.ui_info %CPDIR%\.ui_info
