Hi, just had a read through this thread, are you running 7-mode or c-mode. Cause the 2040 supports both ?

Up to 8.1.4 c-mode and 8.1.4 7-mode.

Is there a requirement to run 7-mode ? Otherwise I would convert that 2040 beast to c-mode straight away 🙂

hey what are you suggesting..

how is it done, requirements

- also for the /etc/rc file

 

can you put in the config example.....

e0a 192.168.x.x

e0b 192.168.x.x

or will that cause a loop?

 

whats the correct format for rc file

I think that's one of those " just because you can, doesn't mean you should" type things  😉

so say

 

ifconfig e0a 192.168.x.x

options dns.enable.off

options nis.enable.off

savecore

are we saving wrfile /etc/rc

ok here is whats happening trying to get backuppc 4.3.2 to write to the san

and its failing due to permissions I feeling like

 

backuppc is running, I can send a request to start a full backup

bu then fails right away  the logs are not helpful

my fas2040 is 8.0.2 node 7

nfs 3,4 is enabled

 

the mount point is up

its just not writing to the share in the mount point

all sorted, backup running fine now ...

 

had to duplicate the root user because of ownership not letting go

dump all resources in to the new user and re set the permissions

 

also running rsync .. so few more steps

 

thanks dude, hope your doing well man!
