I've had many months of reliable backups from a Synology DSM using Synology Hyper Backup (rsync) to a FreeNAS server.
Just yesterday, the backups started failing. The message from Hyper Backup, "Destination (the FreeNAS server) is busy".
Synology Hyper Backup creates a repository in a FreeNAS dataset, like MyFreeNAS/BackupFiles/BackupFiles/SynoNAS/mybackup.hbk/
To test, I created a new Hyper Backup job with the exact same settings as the existing failed job, but with a new repository and it worked fine. So that tells me that the Synology DSM is fine, FreeNAS is fine, rsync is fine, but there's something wrong with the old existing repository in /mybackup.hbk/ on the FreeNAS. I suspect that there are locked files or files in use. How can I check or fix this?
