Backing up DietPi to NAS drive

[Crake]

simply attach the log as real file if needed

Ok, here it is!
Had to compress it, otherwise it will exceed the 5MB limit

Just watched the file and it was sizing 0bytes, so i runned the backup again and it hangs.
Really don't know what else i can do...
I guess i have to buy a simply pen drive to do the backups!

unfortunately the log is empty. There is just an empty file in your 7z

But what I have seen so far from the other post are permission issues. You are not able to change permission on the NFS server.

Just came here to say I use dietpi-backup to a QNAP NAS over NFS just as OP is asking for and it does work fine. The high level steps I followed were:

• Created a new Share on the QNAP

• Modified the 'NFS Host access' in the QNAP GUI to only allow the IP of the host you want to back up using dietpi-backup and grant RW mount access

• Mount the NFS file system using DietPi-DriveManager

• Run DietPi-Backup

Any problems I encountered along the way were all Storage side permissions issues.

Hope that helps.

@Reds
thx for sharing and good to know that it is working on QNAP. I did a test on Synology, which is working as well.

Probably you like to share the challenges you faced on QNAP side an what solution you found.
