10.5: Set up Time Machine on a NAS in three easy steps
Authored by: bluehz on Sun, May 25 2008 at 10:08PM PDT

Everything seems to work when I set this up, but the backup never completes indicating it needs more room, I made the SPARSBUNDLE disc image 1G to start and in my test attempting to backup 150mb fails, sez the disc only has 89mb available. I was under the assumption the sparbundles were self-expanding as needed.

Am I doing something wrong?
