aita_afr on "Linux backup destination folder"

$

Hi

Not sure if I'm missing something, but it might be nice to allow for setting a destination subfolder in the linux backup scripts. I backup multiple linux systems with the same account and I end up with the directory trees from all the linux boxes getting connected unless I edit Backup_Script.pl manually.


BES on "Re uploading"

Hi

I seem to notice idrive re-uploading files that I haven't altered or opened since the last back up. Surely it should skip these?

If I do a back up immediately after it's completed one it still can find lots of files it needs to upload.

Is this normal?

Thanks

A port of the current idrive to a syno system would be nice. It is linux based so some new dev would be needed and they do have an app for hidrive that could be useful.

NickBrd on "API Upload failing"

Hello I'm working with the command line api from Debian Linux (using the universal build for the command line tools), and when attempting a test upload it is failing with the following:

idevs: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes recieved so far) [sender]
idevs error: error in idevs protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(458) [sender=1.0.2.3]

This happens when I attempt to run the following command:

./idevsutil --xml-output --password-file="password" --files-from=list.txt / myUsername@ServerNameFromApiRequest::home/

I can perform the basic validation of account and getServerAddress calls to the API, but the upload and create directory calls do not work and give me this error.

Help?

I have idevsutil for ARM, and it gives me "Segmentation error (core dump)". Support said to download another version of idevsutil. Downloaded. Installed. Same issue as before.

When I run the backup script, I get the following:

[root@alarm IDrive]# ./Backup_Script.pl

I'd like to suggest about the mobile apps. Can you make symbian platform for Nokia phones. I was thinking...most online storage now have different apps for their smartphones. iDrive is the best for me, but i can't use it now when i'm on my smartphone. I have to open my laptop.
Thanks

Windows client 6.0.0.3

1. Open Preferences
2. Change CDP Frequency to 30mins
3. Click X in top right of Pref window - there seems to be no other way to close this window like a Save button
4. Re-open preferences
5. CDP Frequency has original value of Real-time

If I toggle CDP via checkbox this settings is saved, just not the frequency.

Scheduling enabled.
Real-time continuous happens (but I don't know if this has anything to do with it)
At some point the schedule is disabled without any interaction from me.

It would be nice to be able to have multiple schedules one for weekdays and one for weekends. It appears that the UI should support this, but I can only edit the one job; which requires me to change it during different times of the week.

Looking if it is possible for RSync for the ability to backup NAS devices to the cloud. Would love to be able to use idrive with Netgears or Synology or any major vendor.

After running a small backup, idimagecreater.exe is using 70-80% of my cpu. This is after the desktop client has been closed. What is this process? And how can I avoid this problem?

Hi!

I'm new at developing with idrive and I'm developing a web app with javascript.

As I hace understood in the API documentation, we can do an OAuth authentication or skip it, and authenticate the calls.

I've registered an app with url http://www.losdesterrados.es/
Then Ive developed a web app and the javascript I'm using to call https://evsweb1.idrive.com/evs/browseFolder is

function ajaxRequest(){
     var activexmodes=["Msxml2.XMLHTTP", "Microsoft.XMLHTTP"]; //activeX versions to check for in IE
     if (window.ActiveXObject){ //Test for support for ActiveXObject in IE first (as XMLHttpRequest in IE7 is broken)
      for (var i=0; i<activexmodes.length; i++){
       try{
        return new ActiveXObject(activexmodes[i]);
       }
       catch(e){
        //suppress error
       }
      }
     }
     else if (window.XMLHttpRequest) // if Mozilla, Safari etc
      return new XMLHttpRequest();
     else
      return false;
}

function getServerAdress(){
		alert("getting adress");
		var url = "https://evsweb1.idrive.com/evs/browseFolder";
		var params = "uid=user&pwd=pwd";

	var mypostrequest=new ajaxRequest();
    mypostrequest.onreadystatechange=function(){
     if (mypostrequest.readyState==4){
      if (mypostrequest.status==200 || window.location.href.indexOf("http")==-1){
       alert(mypostrequest.responseText);
      }
      else{
       alert("An error has occured making the request");
      }
     }
    }

    mypostrequest.open("POST", url, true);
    mypostrequest.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
    mypostrequest.send(params);		

}

(The user and pwd are the real ones, I've changed them for the post)

And I'm getting this message :

XMLHttpRequest cannot load https://evsweb1.idrive.com/evs/browseFolder. Origin http://www.losdesterrados.es is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Origin.

Why can be the reason for this error?

Thanks

anmari on "Badly managed upgrade for existing customers"

$

I am perturbed at the way the 'upgrade' has played out for older customers and what it indicates about care and concern for customers.

System said there was an update. I update. Then I get told my account is created before 11-23-2011 (ie 23-11-2011) and I must download a 'compatible' application or signup for a new account. wtf?

Since I had recently within the last couple of months just re uploaded most of my backup (new laptop and reorg), I didn't want to go 'backwards' or be stuck with additional software.

So I tried to understand what is going on - something about underlying architecture - fine - so convert the files. Ah "not possible" (oh come on, anything's possible. If I can do a restore, cancel my account, create a new one and reupload, then you could convert the files - it just means you not prepared to do it, not even to maintain a reputation and keep customers happy.

In the business world I come from, an existing customer is to be cherished and looked after, not inconvenienced.

There is a prompt to signup for a new account...There is no mention of whether the existing months left on the account will be credited to the new account. Further research shows that cancel means no refund.. somewhat high handed approach to existing customers.

I have no problem blowing away the backup and starting again with a clean setup. I gather from the other gentlemans post (see Bizarre policy) that this is not encouraged, facilitated ? why not ? - told to cancel a/c and signup for new.

The thought occurs that either
1) you are trying to get rid of older customers for some reason
2) or the process is just not being well managed..... also concerning when it is one's backup provider.

I am astonished that you would not provide or simply manage a conversion of your existing customers. At the least you perhaps could have celebrated the change by offering existing customers an incentive to put up with the inconvenience and convert their accounts.

In the interim I download the compatible application only to find that now I'm back at the old version 3.4.1 and not a version of the new version 6.0.0..... what a waste of my time!

Since I need backups to be happening now, I have to live with it until such time as I can look for alternatives or account is due for renewal (or for course just forgo the funds, not a big amount but I don't feel like rewarding bad management.

If we stay, are we forever going to be stuck on old software that is possibly not updated or maintained as the new version gets all the 'love' ?

Seriously folks, you have this referral program thing going (those inane "recommendations") and then you mess around existing customers... not good.


Erix on "CPU Drain"

I'm running my first backup, and when I pause, stop, or even exit the interface, idwservice_600.exe and other files continue to use upwards of 30% of my CPU. This seems to be taking a toll on my battery life when using the computer unplugged, but unfortunately I can't stop it. Due to a slow upload speed, it's going to take an extremely long time to finish backing up, and at the moment I can't use my computer unplugged until that is finished. Suggestions?

How about a feature to allow config settings for backups to be exported and reimported if they should get lost or corrupted. ? ( or is there already a way of working out these settings ?) I lost all my backup config for no apparent reason - took a while to reset up app !

Jake on "Bandwidth Thottle QoS"

Suggestion #1:

The problem with the current implementation of the Bandwidth Throttle features is that it does not take into account multiple computers on the network.

Ideally I would like the application to interact with the router's QoS (Quality of Service) to prioritize bandwidth between devices on the network.

Suggestion #2:

If the above QoS suggestion cannot be implemented, I'd prefer to limit my bandwith manually (by bit rate) by time of day. More bandwidth at night and during the day, less bandwidth when I'm home.

Jake on "Delete confirmations"

When deleting folders/files from my backup set, I want to see a list of everything marked for deletion.

Scenario:
Select folders/files.
Click delete.
New window showing all folders/files marked for deletion.
Confirm deletion.

Jake on "Exclusions"

When file/folder/pattern is marked for exclusion, I want the file to be removed from the archive.

I also want the exclusion pattern (i.e. *.log) to be shared between devices, so I don't have to retype in multiple places. Prefer to have those settings managed at the account level.
