I am positing a warning for others: If the SSL certificate on your NAS is changed, all of your Active Backup for Business tasks will stop working. But it will not show up as a failure! The tasks will still show as "successful", just as of some date in the past!
This is a huge issue, as you may assume that your PCs are being backed up, and you'll still see a nice green "successful" indication, but you may have been unprotected for months.
This has happened to me 3 times now: The first time I really did change my SSL certificate. The other two times, I did not, although something must have changed. My LetsEncrypt SSL certificate is coming up for renewal soon, so I have yet to see if the renewal will break the ABB tasks again.
To get the tasks working again, you have to log in to each PC you are backing up, open the ABB agent, and Re-trust the SSL certificate. It always asks me to re-trust it twice for some reason.
Until Synology fixes this, it is a pretty valid reason for not using ABB, although I really haven't found a different solution that I like much better.
Synology knows about this issue, but they don't seem interested in fixing it. Perhaps some other people can chime in to Synology and get some action taken.
