I got the RAID0 created and Volume 1. By default user NetBackup
existed, and when I created Volume 1 it was assigned to NetBackup.
Every time I make a change I try to mount the Volume, and eventually I
got an actual error message:

sudo mount -a
mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting
        192.168.1.164:/volume1/Synology

I also created user JJJ, who also has volume 1, but I still can't get
the mount command to work.

I am using NFS to access the storage, and it is enabled. However, your
point 5. is not going to work for me. I have an rsync script that makes
the Synology a mirror of my TB3 enclosure, and that means the Synology
has to be mounted. At least I think it has to be mounted for rsync to
work. And my old DS216j is mounted as I sit here, so it is definitely
possible. It's just that the Synology web interface on the DS220+ has a
million buttons with labels that I don't understand, plus it is always
telling me 'you must enable xxx' but it never tells me where I can find
the button to enable xxx.

Here are the relevant lines from fstab:

192.168.1.115:/volume1/Synology /media/jjj/Synology nfs auto,user 0 0
192.168.1.164:/volume1/Synology /media/jjj/Synology2 nfs auto,user 0 0

And yes, the folder Synology2 exists. The first of the above lines
mounts the old DS216j with never a problem. It has been working for
several years. The second line is a copy/paste/edit of the first line.
It ought to work, but after investing several long days trying, it
still fails.

My most recent endeavor on the DS220+ was to setup the router, but the
Synology web interface can't automtically find my router (DIR 860L B1).
You can set it up manually by choosing your router from a list, but my
router is not listed. However, when I log into the router I see that
the DS220+has been assigned an IP address, so I don't know why I might
need to set the router up for the DS220+.
