Nicodem Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 I gave up, no idea at all what is wrong but with new Mac I cannot use time machine. Created new share for user, private, set to time machine. Mounting it at Mac, adding as space but when it starts just gets error that machine couldnt complete backup and info "The backup disk image could not be created.".

rbhalla Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 I get similar "connection invalid" errors. Did you ever solve this? Mine backed up for a few weeks, then randomly started failing. Quote Link to comment
fplanque Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 @Nicodem Have you tried accessing the share through the finder and create a random folder on it? @rbhalla Same as above + sadly enough, oftentimes you need to reboot the mac to clear some caches for network connection + occasionally it helps to reboot unraid.

Squid Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Time Machine has been a bit of a project in sorting this all out You must give the time machine share a volume size limit. Leaving it empty does not work anymore You should always specify a single disk on the included disks section when creating the share. Time Machine backups via SMB are stored as a single vdisk. This means that it is constrained to a single disk no matter what. Depending upon how your split levels work etc and how much free space you have on whatever disk it winds up creating the share on, you could have significantly less space available than you think. If the volume size limit is greater than the available space on the drive, then TM will work for a little bit (days) and then ultimately fail Anecdotal Any failed backup for whatever reason to a SMB share will result in TM never being able to backup again to that share without deleting the share and then re-creating it (and having TM re-initialize the backup) Any change to SMB settings after creating the share seem to need a restart of Unraid. (eg: creating a new share etc) At the end of the day, TM to network drives is unsupported by Apple (although it lets you do it). Findings / fixes are still a work in progress for me. 3 Quote Link to comment
