For QNAP NAS devices, we have dedicated AhsayOBM agents for directly installation on the NAS devices to backup files with the NAS. You can also map the NAS device as a network share and back it up with AhsayOBM / AhsayACB running on another machine.
Below is the system architecture diagram illustrating the major elements involved in the backup process among the backup machine, AhsayOBM on Synology and AhsayCBS.
For the list of Synology NAS models, DiskStation Manager (DSM) version and hardware requirement, refer to: Ahsay Hardware Requirement List for AhsayOBM on Synology NAS
For the list of compatible operating systems, refer to: Ahsay Software Compatibility List (SCL)
For the list of compatible operating system for OpenDirect and Granular Restore, refer to: Ahsay Software Compatibility List (SCL) for Granular and OpenDirect Restore
The latest version of AhsayOBM must be installed on the Synology NAS.
Make sure the NAS-QNAP feature has been enabled as an add-on module in your AhsayOBM user account to cover the backup of your QNAP NAS.
The QNAP NAS user account used for the AhsayOBM installation must be a member of “administrator” user group.
The QNAP NAS user account belongs to “everyone” user group can apply AhsayOBM after administrator assigning AhsayOBM to Display on “Every user’s menu” or “Every user’s main menu and as an App shortcut on the login screen”in App Center.
After login with user account belongs to “everyone” user group, you can find the App in the user’s menu.
