Details
ODBC specifications includes a function called CONVERT that can be used
to convert data from one datatype to another. This function is equivalent to
the CAST function defined in SQL-92. The syntax is as follows:
{fn CONVERT (value-exp, data-type) }
Example:
select
{fn
CONVERT
(dob
, SQL_CHAR
)}
from
Student
The second parameter to this function should be a valid ODBC data type. Following list
contains possible values.
- SQL_CHAR
- SQL_VARCHAR
- SQL_LONGVARCHAR
- SQL_DECIMAL
- SQL_NUMERIC
- SQL_SMALLINT
- SQL_INTEGER
- SQL_DOUBLE
- SQL_BINARY

To change the Temp file directory for a Syncrify CLIENT machine.
add to/edit C:\ProgramFiles\SyncrifyClient\SyncrifyClient.lax
lax.nl.java.option.additional=-Djava.io.tmpdir=C:\temp

You need to be careful with the default temp directory on a QNAP.
Syncrify uses /tmp by default. This directory is actually a ramdisk and is restricted to 64mb in size.
I found that this limit was breached and it caused other issues on the QNAP. In particular the temperature monitoring stopped and the fan monitor reported a failure.
I created a tmp directory off the Syncrify directory as per the article and normality returned.

I have two machines backing up to two removable disks on syncrify server. Is there any way to set temp folder for each client machine ?

I can find no file called server.properties in my Syncrify\config folder. I have chunk files multiplying and which never get erased.
