  1. No, the license is general, regardless of identities.

    Master identities can be deleted and recreated and also transferred to other devices using the link function. Of course, this means that everything has to be set up again, as the peers are also linked to identities.

    If orphan device identities exist, if you know, which one is not in use, they can be deleted in the same way as the databases, since these orphans can also lead to errors. To be completely sure, it is better to create new identities that are then re-linked.

  2. If you are sure that the data are synchronized on the devices, I would stop Resilio on the respective device, delete the database (all files in the SynUserxxxxxxxxxx directory that end with *.db and *.db-wal) and then Resilio start again. It has already proven to be good for me to do this on all devices at the same time.

    If the Pro version is in use and identities are used, it might also be helpful to recreate the master identity, since orphaned or duplicate identities sometimes accumulate there, which can cause disruptions. Unfortunately, these identities can only be hidden via the GUI, but not deleted, which is very bad.

  3. Better is to have on both sides the IgnoreList. As editor I use Notepad++, but also you can use similar editors. Simply open the file IgnoreList you find in each .sync folder and write line per line your excludions, e.g.:
     

    # Resilio + Syncthing .stglobalignore
    # IgnoreList is a UTF-8 encoded .txt file that helps you specify single files, paths and rules
    # for ignoring during the synchronization job. It supports "?" and "*" wildcard symbols.
    #
    # ? substitutes any single character in a filename
    # * substitutes a string of several (any number) characters in a filename
    # a/**/b ignore between root and target folder, will ignore folders a/b, a/x/b, a/x/y/b and so on
    # ABC/CDE F will ignore subfolder “CDE F" of “ABC" which is located in a subfolder

    The Resilio and Syncthing entrances I have, since I using Resilio and Syncthing in parallel by different reasons.

  4. In the Linux world it is standard that script lines with # at the beginning is a character for commenting out. Everything that follows a # is at most a comment, nothing else. And it doesn't matter whether there is a space after it or not. Sometimes // are also used, but this is not common.

    # are not errors, but give the user the choice, e.g. activate or deactivate a parameter etc.

  5. This is one of the biggest disadvantages of this software, but also of its biggest competitor, Syncthing. However, since I have Synology servers, I use ownCloud or Synology Drive for sharing links. This means with this is no installation of software required.

    I can live very well with this solution. I have with Resilio and Syncthing software for all platforms and because of the P2P technology I have very fast data exchange directly to the next device.

  6. Doe you analyse any logs and other files? Doe you have enough space on storage and also enough RAM? How much peers you have with which no. of files and folders? Because it seems that Resilio starts normal, but doesnt run continously because of other reasons.

    Fragments means, after de-installation there are maybe a rest of any files from Resilio, you delete manually.

  7. Maybe the problem has to do with Synology’s partly strange ACL system. In my opinion maybe this have nothing to doe directly with Resilio. However, in most cases I can remove such things with a standard procedure.

    In such cases, I’ve deleted the Synology ACLs by setting the owner and group to root and octal rights to 0777 for all files and subdirectories in the affected peers. Then I go back to Synology DSM into filestation and inherit the permissions again in these peers in all files and subdirectories.

    This is kind of a standard procedure if I have any kind of permission issue. But I outline, is also a procedure more for experts and people, which know the background of such things.
