backup

I've restored my MariaDb databases from a backup due to a storagepool failure. However it seems none of my local php-websites are able to access it anymore: "SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused" I've always thought configuring MariaDb was a mess (using phpMyAdmin), especially useraccounts...

Hi all, In the news was that MS sometimes deletes/disables/locks free accounts if they think they found something on their storage that's not in order according to their rules. For synology there is no solution to backup free MS and Google accounts, is there a work around other than go to the...

So I currently have a DS918+ with 4 drives totalling 10TB mainly used as storage; music server photo depositary etc. I also have a usb drive attached to backup the nas daily. I've purchased a powered switch and camera which I've yet to set up. I aim to have 2 cameras used for the obvious. My...

I have created a backup of a Synology folder on my Google drive using Hyper backup. Then I tried to view the files on Google drive using Hyper Backup Explorer. The problem is I don't know how to specify the path to Google drive in the explorer tool, as Google drive does not seem to allow that...

Hi all, my first post on this forum :-) I have a DS918+ with more than 27TB loaded, practically speaking all my digital life! :-) I'm on a 30 days free trial with some colleagues for a Dropbox Team Advanced which comes with unlimited cloud space and I'd like to use it to backup most of my...

Hi. Sincere apologies if this question is so obvious as to be an eye roll, but I've been all over this forum and elsewhere and can't seem to answer it. Background. My DS412+ bricked on a routine restart. I don't have a backup. Was running latest DSM6. Fans and blinking blue lights. I have...

Well Active Backup for Business 2.5.0 is here so let’s see how well it does with macOS backups as opposed to Time Machine. Let the testing begin!

Hey, everyone! First post here. :) I'm setting up PC backups through ABB for the first time. Is there not a way to do a file/folder level backup similar to what you can do in a file server? The templates make it super nice for backing up multiple PCs, but it's useless if I have to backup an...

Hello All, This is an idea that I can’t stop thinking about and wanted to reach out here for feedback. Many of us here have the same goal of protecting our data and providing redundancy. Of course you can accomplish this via several online backup solutions capable of syncing data from our NAS...

Morning All, I have a couple of questions regarding the use of Hyper Backup and a suggested file format. I have three NAS (1520+, 218+, and 220+ -- all running the latest DSM 7). I have decided to make my first line of "defense" against data loss/corruption by creating Hyper Backups to external...

Hello friends, I switched from DMS 6.2 version to 7.1 version, I was able to view the backup disks I bought with active backup from the Portal screen, but after the update, "The file system cannot be viewed because it is not supported" warning appears. thanks.

Hi everyone, Hopefully someone can advise me on the best method(s) to backup my data. In my opinion, my requirements are pretty basic, but I have not yet found a way to meet them all. My main purposes: Backing-up only certain folders across my 4 HDDs in my PC and my gf's laptop Automatically...

Does anyone have any ideas why HyperBackup will not restore from C2? Each time I try I get operation failed. Local backups work fine.

I’m currently on the latest DSM (7.1.1-42962 update 2), since the last update installed my configuration backups are failing. Both the automatic one and trying to manually backup too. They both have the same error code of ”Operation failed. Please sign in to DSM again and retry”. I’ve done that...

I use an 8Tb external drive, this Seagate backup drive, which is used to back up 'critical data' from the NAS. This is plugged directly into the USB port on the back of the NAS. Yesterday I got a message from the NAS saying it was full. I therefore reformatted it (EXT4) and created a new backup...

Hello, I am currently backing up several Macs with TimeMachine on my Synology NAS DS 220+. Unfortunately, even if you severely limit the available storage and exclude as much data as possible from the backup, multiple TimeMachine backups simply consume an enormous amount of storage. Since...

Hi, I'm using Active BackUp for Google Workspace on DS918+. There are 3 tasks for 3 Google Workspaces running smoothly. The problem: in the ABG Portal only 1 task (out of 3) is visible in the dropdown list. I have searched on forums - I didn't manage to find this issue. Lately contacted...

I have a DS1621xs+ on 192.168.1.10 & a DS918+ on 192.168.1.11 on my local network. I want to backup the DS1621xs+ to the DS918+ with Hyper Backup (this is what I understand to be the preferred way). I open Hyper Backup in the source machine, select Network LUN Backup (Synology server), n the...
