How to change FTP location

Thread needs solution

I am doing my backups to my NAS using FTP.

My router died yesterday and for various technical reason the new router setup as a different IP allocation than the old one, so the NAS IP address changed.  Now of course, all my True Image backup scripts to to the NAS through FTP are failing.

How do I update the IP address of the FTP destination?

Thanks.

DRCA, welcome to these user forums.

Several thoughts come to mind for your question.

1.  You could check whether your router would allow you to reserve the old IP address for your NAS.

2.  Clone your current backup task settings and select the new IP address for your NAS in the cloned task.
Note: if using this option, please remove the old task settings before running the new cloned task.

3.  See KB document: 58000: Acronis True Image 2016: Troubleshooting Issues with NAS Devices to see if some of the suggestions offered there may help.
