OK, detailed steps because sometimes we can’t always remember how to do things exactly. If you remember what you need to do from this, you need read no further. A new UI token will probably be generated and I’ll need to update the VM where I manage the NAS’s instance in order to connect to it again.The upgrade will need to be run manually from the Synology’s shell. After installation, Crashplan will likely download an upgrade and it will fail causing the package to stop running.Java needs to be either installed separately or downloaded separately.There are three main points I need to remember. However, being an unsupported configuration, sometimes updating the instance gets a bit tricky. One of the brilliant members of the Synology user community, namely PC Load Letter (patters), has packaged the Linux version of Crashplan that we may all reap the benefits. Unfortunately, this isn’t exactly a supported configuration for Crashplan. This has the benefit of providing a local backup for all my family’s machines and also a way for me to backup the data on the NAS to Crashplan’s cloud. But enough about that.Īs you may have gathered from the title, I run my Crashplan instance on my Synology NAS. The short is Crashplan is a great choice despite the limited choices I do have. Fortunately, I am lucky enough to live in an area where I can get fibre and the upload speeds really aren’t anything to complain about. Since Australia is more or less known for it’s backwater internet speeds, there isn’t much more you can expect living here. It’s one of the few cloud backup services that actually has a presence in Australia. Even though many people complain about it’s slow upload speeds (mainly in the US). So you may have noticed, I use Crashplan for my backups.
