Crashplan on QNAP

Turns out there's a nice docker image that can run on QNAP, but to really use it to its full potential you can't use Container Station because it won't let you map the /share drive into the container.

I use the https://github.com/jlesage/docker-crashplan-pro image and it works wonderfully. This issue really helped: https://github.com/jlesage/docker-crashplan-pro/issues/8

The solution is to SSH into your QNAP, and manually run the docker command. Container Station will then be able to "see" your running container so you can manage it afterwards.

The command to run is:

docker run -d \

    --name=crashplan-pro \

    -e USER_ID=0 \

    -e GROUP_ID=0 \

    -e CRASHPLAN_SRV_MAX_MEM=12G \

    -p 5800:5800 \

    -p 5900:5900 \

    -v /share/docker/appdata/crashplan-pro:/config:rw \

    -v /share:/share:ro \

    jlesage/crashplan-pro
