How to install Crashplan in Docker on Synology NASįor this guide I’m using my Synology DS1815+ NAS running DSM 6.0-7321 Update 3. Notice: If you have the PC Load Letter Crashplan already running on your Synology using my previous guide “ How to install CrashPlan on Synology Diskstation” then you will need to Stop or Uninstall that package before beginning the Docker guide below. If not already installed go to: Package Center > Utilities > Docker and click Install.

You are using a supported Synology NAS that can run Docker and already have the package installed.

You have a Crashplan account with the desktop client already installed, if not click here to sign up now.

One such software being Crashplan and below I’m going to show how I now have Crashplan running in Docker on my Synology DS1815+ NAS!īefore we start there are a few things I’m going to assume you’ve already done, if not do them now. Then last year in DSM 5.2, Synology added support for Docker which opened up the possibility to run all sorts of software in a virtual container running on your Synology NAS. Patters being the awesome guy he is, usually updated his Synology Crashplan package quickly and all was good again. Crashplan would push out an update and that update would, at times, break the Synology Crashplan client from PC Load Letter and backups would stop running for a couple days – maybe a week. I am a huge fan of CrashPlan and have been using it for years on my Synology NAS using this install guide I wrote up some time ago.Īdmittedly the process in the old guide wasn’t always roses.
