Setting the destination to the Linux-based NAS, the message, "available space is not enough" is displayed

Symptoms

Setting the destination to a Linux-based NAS, the message, "available space is not enough" is displayed. Therefore it can not proceed with the backup wizard. In a Windows-based NAS, this symptom does not occur.

Cause

This is a known bug in the available space calculation.

Workaround

Please set the backup destination to a CIFS mount.

e.g.
# mount -t cifs //xxxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/<shared folder> /mnt -o username=<share user>,password=<share password>
