Quick overview of my problem/question.
I have two xpenology servers - main data server and his backup on second machine. Backup is exactly that - it wakes up 2 times a day, receives data from snapshot replications and goes to sleep - literally nothing more.
Snapshot replication is my go to app, it makes all snapshots and backups flawlessly, i can access snapshots through windows explorer, just win-win, to a point.
Problem starts when, for some reasons, connection between servers is broken. It happened for me second time, this time sas controler went crazy and crashed (temporarilly) volume. I've changed controller, data is all back, disks are ok - no problem there. Unfortunatelly snapshot replication jobs on backup server are gone. Nada.
On main server they are there, but says "broken/damaged connection" (its in polish language on mine servers, dunno what original english tag says).
There is no way to repair that connection, i can only delete that job. No other buttons, i can go into edit, but all is greyed out.
Do it again you say? No problem with a job to remake, but even if all data are safelly on source and destination servers, program HAS to send all job data again - tens of TBs in mine case.
On destination server data is read only, i cannot overwrite permissions to this folders (or i dont know how) just to move correct data to new folders. All has to go through network between servers again. Its not healthly for hdds, its terrible slow (many days) when all data is in its orignal places, just dont know how to repair connection.
