[Support] Djoss - CrashPlan PRO (aka CrashPlan for Small Business)


Recommended Posts

Yes, from CP Home.  I did the adoption process, it said 'adoption successful' at the time, but still says all of my folders are missing.

 

I assumed when the message about successful adoption came up all was OK, so I logged out and didn't check again as I was away from home for a few days so struggling to remember if I missed a bit!

Anyone else seeing CPU usage spike with this docker running?  When my server sitting idle it is normally 0-5% CPU usage.  When I start this docker it sits around 30%+ all the time.  It is running as expected and doing everything it should but what is it doing all the time?  Backups are scheduled to run 2am-6am only.  Changing cpu setting in the docker  % when away, % when present seem to not change anything.  I also tried the niceness setting in advance setup but didn’t see a change their either.   Am I missing something?  This normal for this docker? 

 

This was a fresh install/backup set so no conversion or other stuff like that.

Hey guys, i was wondering if this upload speed is normal? Can't seem to get higher than 4Mbps :\ It's not saturating my currently upload speed tho :(

I've gotten much lower speeds since migrating to small business from home. I doubt it's the container because I've been getting terrible speeds since the migration on both gfjardim's container and this one. It rarely goes about 2Mbps. Before the small business migration I'd get 4.5-5.5Mbps. I don't know if they're throttling me since the migration or if small business is inherently slower, but it's a real problem.

Hi guys,

 

It took me a while to figure out why Crashplan wasn't maxing (or at least near-maxing) my upload capacity.

The thing is that Crashplan seem to have been developed with much lower connections in mind than the ones we have today.

 

• Stop the Crashplan docker

• Go to your appdata folder, navigate to your Crahsplan folder

• Edit the "my.service.xml" file in the "conf" folder

 

And change the following value to 1:

          <dataDeDupAutoMaxFileSizeForWan>1</dataDeDupAutoMaxFileSizeForWan>
 

• This will effectively disable the data de-duplication for any file larger than 1 byte for any backup done over the internet

• Start your Crashplan docker again

 

This always had me max my connection again. Otherwise, I rarely went beyond 2 MB/s. (currently happily going over 25 MB/s with that)

 

Kind regards,

Denis

It could have been the Pro version overwriting your my.services.xml file during an update (see my post above).

I have double checked my config file and it does still have dedupe disabled. It is uploading at the speed I would expect it to if dedupe were enabled. But with the config file being correct, I don't know where to go from here.

 

          <compression>OFF</compression>
          <dataDeDupAutoMaxFileSize>1</dataDeDupAutoMaxFileSize>
          <dataDeDupAutoMaxFileSizeForWan>1</dataDeDupAutoMaxFileSizeForWan>
          <dataDeDuplication>MINIMAL</dataDeDuplication>

 

I went and looked at some old logs

I 10/01/17 12:16AM [XXXXXX Backup] Stopped backup to CrashPlan Central in 21.2 hours: 116 files (44.40GB) backed up, 44GB encrypted and sent @ 6.8Mbps

and compared to the new logs

I 11/21/17 07:43AM [XXXXXX Backup] Stopped backup to CrashPlan Central in 4.7 hours: 25 files (4.70GB) backed up, 4.60GB encrypted and sent @ 1.6Mbps (Effective rate: 1.9Mbps)

So i don't know if they're throttling now, or if something is screwed up with my client despite what the config file is saying. I'm tempted just delete the container, reinstall, and instead of attempting to transfer all the settings from the gfjardim's container. just adopt the backup. I'm concerned that with dedup being disabled, I'll end up having to reupload everything.
