Hello!
I've seen a lot of topic and articles everywhere about crashplan, but I couldn't find anyone doing what I do.
From what I understand, people using crashplan with Freenas is to backup the NAS data on crashplan server, but I couldn't find anyone wanted to use the NAS as a backup server (Like, I have my folder I want to backup, I install crashplan on my PC and it's saved on the NAS).
So I just want to know if I did properly to make sure I didn't forget anything, I just edited /usr/pbi/crashplan-amd64/share/crashplan/conf/custom_sample.properties and put my login and password from Crashplan, and then I also edited /usr/pbi/crashplan-amd64/share/crashplan/conf/my.service.xml to change manifestpath at <manifestPath>/mnt/backup/</manifestPath> (or whervere you want to store).
And then when I launch the crashplan app on my computer, I have crashplan_1 that appeared as abackup destination, and I could start the process. Is everything OK?
Thx :)
PS: I have a pretty decent transfer rate when I copy files usually, but here it's around 15 Mbps, it's pretty slow, is that normal?
edit: ok, the speed it's because it was many small files, much better with big file, still not max but I guess it can't be while using the software.
