Unable to select /apps/koken/ as directory for rSync (only share allowed)
I'm trying to create a "geo-redundant" setup between two Koken CMS installations on two RNs. (See also: http://help.koken.me/customer/en/portal/questions/16197007-geo-redundant-koken-setup.) Currentl...

I don't know anything about Koken, but you could try creating a Koken share, and copying all the data from /data/,apps//koken to it (preserving permissions, etc). Then delete the contents of /apps/koken and create a softlink to the share. If you do that in both systems, normal rsync backup will work.
Another approach would be to create a cron job to copy /apps/Koken to a share (and then back up the share). The cron job approach has the benefit that you can shut down the service, before you update the share (restarting it afterwords). Though the backup snapshot should give you a coherent copy w/o needing to do that.
Either way, you won't get two-way sync - but you can get the slave to mirror the master.

Link to Koken post mentioned in this thread doesn't work because the .) are also included in the url. This is the correct link:
http://help.koken.me/customer/en/portal/questions/16197007-geo-redundant-koken-setup
Know issues on this setup: The Koken admin pages on the slave doesn't show the libraries, essays and other content.
The live site however is now fully synced by means of SQL replication, a symbolic link (see above) and rsync of /data/koken/web.
