The process is complete once you close the confirmation window that appears. The backup job will be added
to the backup jobs list.
Notes:
• To use the service after the network was temporarily disconnected, click Reconnect.
• If a file is directly added to the Amazon S3 bucket, the file will not be replicated to the remote folder.
• Do not copy 100,000 or more files to the backup source folder at once. If you do and uploading fails, check the
network environment speed and try again with fewer files.
• Be careful with existing files in the remote folder, as files with the same name will be overwritten even if copied
files are older.
• If you copy a file to the shared folder using File Explorer or a backup process, the file will also be uploaded
sequentially to the Amazon S3 bucket. This second uploading process will start in the background during the first
copying process and will not be visible. If the TeraStation is shut down or restarted immediately after copying a
file to the shared folder, changing the settings, or disconnecting and reconnecting the Ethernet cable, the file
may not be uploaded to the bucket. Try copying the file again if this occurs.
• If you encounter any upload or download errors, click Error Log. The log will display the filename and operation
during which the error occurred.
• If uploading fails, try copying the file again. If it still fails, click Reconnect or set the Amazon S3 switch to off and on
again, then restart the function service.
• If accessing or transferring files that total 1 TB or more to the Amazon S3 bucket, make sure there is enough free
space on the TeraStation for temporary file caching. For example, when uploading 1 TB of files to the bucket, it is
recommended to keep at least 2 TB of free space available.
