Error: Cant add inotify watch of "/etc/config/rsyncschedule.conf" error (28)
i have 3 readynas's: pro 6, pro business, and nv+. They mostly work together, two are used for backing up various other systems and nas boxes. I am trying to back up a (qnap) nas to the readyna...
found what was wrong btw
had to bump up max_user_watches to about 1 million. now everything works fine
Looks like it might be an issue on the QNAP side.

Running the latest QNAP firmware?
that thread is from 2012-2014
many updates since then
but isnt that error referencing the rsync server which is located on the target device, which in this case is the readynas?
If the ReadyNAS is the server then you would see the error message on the QNAP which is running the client. Considering that thread has posts spread over 2012-2014 it would not be at all surprising if the bug in their firmware is still present.

thanks for the response. i wish i knew more about this stuff.
so its your thought that the client is the one that has this problem? i had assumed the server portion is what the error referred to.
any ideas how to nail down where the issue is? the readynas boxes certainly do work together; maybe a difference in rsync versions between the two? i just need to figure out what the problem is and fix it, or at least understand it well enough to work around it, since these are the boxes im dealing with at this point.
thanks for any help.
