QNAP

Resilio Connect packages are not available in an official application store on the QNAP NAS, so a manual installation and update is required.

Installation

  1. Download the agent config from Management Console. Edit the file if necessary, name it sync.conf, and put in: /shares/Public directory on the QNAP.
  2. Download Agent package. 
  3. On the NAS go to AppCenter ->Manual install ->  and pick the downloaded .qpkg file.

The agent will get installed, move the config file into its storage (/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/.qpkg/ResilioAgent/) and connect to the Management Console.

The Connect Agent will run as the admin on the NAS and will use the NAS device name.

Update an agent

Download the package (qpkg). On NAS go to Appscenter and stop Resilio Agent. Click to install an app manually and select the downloaded qpkg file. You might need to manually launch Agent.

Don't do package removal

Do not "Remove" existing package prior installation of a new one. "Remove" button on QNAP cleans up all package data and will cause Agent to lose its identity and connect to the Management Console as a fresh agent that participates no jobs.

By default, all shares will be stored in the directory as defined in "folders_storage_path" value in agent config file. This might be %DOWNLOADS%, %HOME% or %USERPROFILE% variable, their default destinations are given here. You can change these defaults by editing folders.conf file in storage folder:

{
  "downloads_folder_path" : "/share/HDA_DATA/Public/Resilio Agent/Downloads",
  "user_profile_folder_path" : "/share/HDA_DATA/Public/Resilio Agent",
  "home_folder_path" : "/share/HDA_DATA/Public/Resilio Agent",
  "management_server": {
    "host": "0.0.0.0:0"
  }
}
