Glacier Question

Post by logi7 »

I installed the Glacier App - everything works so far! But one thing is unclear to me:

- Where is the information about my backup jobs stored?

If you are in the situation that your NAS crashes - and you need to reinstall everything the APP is blank. In this case you will NOT be able to restore the data...

BTW I learned that the hard way with my last NAS... :oops:

It stores the meta data (information about the structure and file names etc) in Glacier, along with all your backed up data.

You can easily do a full restore to any QNAP device.

Please read the documentation:
