Before installing Agent for Windows 6.1.0.349, unlicensed, I’d never seen a “Job HOST_1” created. That’s on something like seven years and two or three Windows 10/11 clients running the free agent every night. Since installing 6.1.0.349, I see these created by one or more of the three clients most night. One client is Windows 10, two are Windows 11, all target a Synology Diskstation over SMB, one via Ethernet connection and two via WiFi.
These started showing up the first night after installing the Agent update.
I’ve deleted or relocated the _1 job folder on the server, and then edited the job on the client to map it back to the “Job HOST” backup set. It says HOST is already using the backup Job HOST. I say OK. Happiness is restored, the job runs as expected, and all is good until I go looking for Job HOST_1 folders the next morning. Rinse and repeat.
Any suggestions?
