So for the last few months I've been getting those dreaded emails from CrashPlan Pro telling me nothing is getting backed up but I've been busy. I knew the PC (old desktop I had running for the backup instance) had some issues and just hadn't gotten around to it. Today I put up another...

Hi all. I'm currently planning on moving to FreeNAS to consolidate my home network, and I'm excited about the flexibility and features of the FreeNAS environment. However, there's one sticking point which might be a "showstopper", and I'm hoping someone can point me in the direction of a...

Hi everyone. I am planning to set a FreeNAS build to help me with my crashplan backup. As crashplan in moving to end the family subscription, and with the dollar rates floating, we won't be able to keep more than 2 machines. The plan is to keep my main machine and a spare one to achieve the...

Hi, This is my first FreeNAS (and indeed FreeBSD) project, but luckily I've been using Linux since the mid '90s... so I'm not a total noob to the CLI ;-) I'm currently making my home file-server ( http://www.gavsworld.net/?page=The%20Server ) more rugged, since CrashPlan have announced that...

Am I correct to assume the plug-in for Free NAS will not support Crash Plan for Small Business? If that is true does anyone know if there are plans for a plug-in to support it?

As we now know, "CrashPlan for Home" ($60/month) is now being discontinued. So what are our options moving forward? As I need to look into my options, I have done some quick research, and thought I share it here. Please Note: I have no ties to any of the companies! Migrate to a CrashPlan for...

I just received this email today from Crashplan. Since many FreeNAS users happen to use CP, I thought this would be an interesting topic to discuss. Will you begin looking elsewhere for your backups? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CrashPlan® for...

So got this little gem in the email today. I was originally a carbonite user but I ditched them for several reasons 1. The more you push the more they throttle you 2. Worked only on Winders Crashplan is amazing with the family plan and the fact that people have built containers/jails for this...

Is there any news or information regarding how to successfully install java 64-bit in a jail? I would like that so I can allocate more than 3gb of RAM to my crashplan back up. My 8.3 TB is going to take 71 days at the current speed of 10.7Mbps -__-. I ran into this and there seemed to be some...

I just upgraded from 9.10 to 11.0 and everything seems to be working except my crashplan plugin. It shows it as OFF under Service Status. I really need this working but have no idea how to fix it. I haven't been able to log in to it headless in years, ever since they did the forced upgrade...

Wanting to try out the latest and greatest Crashplan FreeNAS+iocage plugin, I got it all setup and running. When I bring up the Crashplan GUI over ssh Crashplan looks to be going through the motions of upgrading itself but is not able to. The GUI stops after a few moments. If I try...

There's numerous things broken in the CrashPlan plugin on FreeNAS 11. Setting up a standard jail to install CrashPlan into isn't an option, as the few guides I've found that detail what needs to be installed all use the linux_base-f10 port, which has reported vulnerabilities (from around mid...

Hello... first of all I would like to inform you that im a FreeNAS (and also a backup) noob. My problem is that I am currently trying to turn my FreeNAS to a backup server that would allow me to backup windows and linux hosts but the problem is I somehow couldnt get Crashplan running. I really...

I’m running CrashPlan 4.8.0 as a plugin on FreeNAS-9.10-STABLE. I applied the updates below then CrashPlan would not start. base-os-9.10.1-U4 docs-9.10.1-U3 freebsd-pkgdb-9.10.1-U4 freenas-pkg-tools-9.10.1-U3 FreeNASUI-9.10.1-U4 I opened a root shell to the crashplan jail and checked for...

New to FreeNAS, but seem to be getting there. Having looked through the threads I plumped for setting up CP through a virtualbox jail. I'm familiar with both linux and virtualbox, so didn't find it too difficult. I went for BunsenLabs OS as my linux distribution because I use it on my laptop...

Banging my head against a wall here and can use some help. My goal is to run crashplan on a virtual machine through iohyve. Trying to run ubuntu through bhyve using http://gavowen.ninja/2016/07/installing-ubuntu-server-16-04-in-freenas-9-10-beehyve/ I made the following errors which I later...

Hi dear loved community, I'm casting a line out there to see if anyone was hit by the mandatory update from Crashplan v4.7 to v4.8 recently. The new version requires a new version of the Java runtime now v1.8 (previously v1.7). The new JVM causes a lot of problem. I've attempted many different...

I was introduced to CrashPlan through the FreeNAS plugin, and have worked over the years to keep it working through the automatic upgrades and various nuances and compatibility issues. I thought I would post here to offer a tutorial I wrote up as an alternate to the CrashPlan plugin that I...

Thanks to help from @m0nkey_ and this tutorial, I created a Virtual Machine (VM) using bhyve and installed Ubuntu 16: http://gavowen.ninja/2016/07/installing-ubuntu-server-16-04-in-freenas-9-10-beehyve/ But I don't understand how to access my new Ubuntu server. Is it strictly a command-line...
