#Synology #ActiveBackupForBusiness is still my favorite #backup tool.

Testing backup restore with latest #Apple #macOS #Tahoe 26.5 beta, works like a charm!

Time to test the new #Synology #ActiveBackupforBusiness 3.2 platform following yesterday rollout, bringing more than a few fixes, as well as a handful of new features

What is the most often situation that you need to restore a file from #backup? For me, accidental changes.

I opened an older file and completely forgot to rename/duplicate it before I started editing. After 2h, I saved the changes under a new file name, but the original was already changed due to autosave.

#Synology #ActiveBackupForBusiness to the rescue! ABB restored the file back onto my scratch drive in seconds.

It's not a question of "if", but "when" will you need it!

Kleine Warnung an alle die #Synology #abb Software unter #zorinos 17 nutzen und auf 18 upgraden wollen. Das endet in einem Kernel Panic!!!
ABB ist aktuell nur bis kernel 6.8 freigegeben. Ihr müsst entweder ABB vorher deinstallieren, oder (lange?) warten bis Synology in die Pötte kommt und endlich 6.17x unterstützt. Immer das gleiche, ABB unter linux ist echt die Seuche.. :-(

#Apple #macOS update time. Test machine with #macos26 .4, and two production Macs with 15.7.4.

#Backup handled by #Synology #ActiveBackupForBusiness

#Synology volume migration continues. Today, about 3TB+ in total of #ActiveBackupForBusiness storage "folders".

Using #SnapshotReplication to do it by the book instead of volume migration. Worked well so far with other ABB storage folders.

True and tested... 🐢

Can't recall last time I needed a #backup restore but I guess working late has its consequences.

Editing files directly from the source is always a bad scenario and I avoid it, hence why I use a scratch drive.

But I managed to overwrite one file from the source by accident.

That feeling when you don't panic because you have a backup and you just say to yourself, "you idiot... -.-"

#Synology #ActiveBackupForBusiness working just fine with the latest #macOS 26.1 #Tahoe beta 4.

The "tinted" fix makes this version much more tolerable, while those corners are still ticking my OCD to high heaven! 🫨

Migrating #Synology #ActiveBackupForBusiness volumes from one #NAS to the other. Time to start using the latest #ABB version, and prepare the old RS machine for decommissioning.
