Firmware 6.4.0 breaks backup log email

[pumpichank]

I recently upgraded my ReadyNAS 312 to firmware 6.4.0.  I have a number of rsync backups that are working fine, but the 6.4.0 upgrade seems to have changed/broken the email notifications that get sent on completion of the backup job.

I have jobs set to report full backup logs and previously, I would see the normal success block of text, along with a dump of the fully rsync job.  I use this to verify that the files I expected to change actually got saved.

Now with 6.4.0, I see the success notifications, but the rsync output is not present in the email.  However if I go to the job on the admin page and click on Log, I do see the full rsync output.  That's reassuring but I would like to get the rsync log output back in notification email.  This seems like a regression in 6.4.0.  Has anyone else noticed this?  Do you have a workaround?  Should I report this as a bug?  (How do you report bugs?)

Thanks.

We should have found the root cause and a fix will be ready in next firmware release. Thank you.

I have a ReadyNAS 314 running 6.4.0. On it are some rsync backup jobs that push data across to a legacy ReadyNAS.

I just checked and the email report I get from the 314 does include the rsync stats:

It's very strange.  I do occasionally see the full rsync logs, but of the 6 jobs I run nightly, it happens at most to only one job, and even then the log is only included about once a week.  And I know that more of the jobs have rsync updates.

Nice. 

Does that mean new betas soon ? Or we will have to wait another stable release ?

Thx.
