OK,
Reading the ReadyNAS OS 6.2 manual again it says "Using Rsync is the preferred backup method when backing up from one ReadyNas Device to another."
So I want to copy data from \NASserver\data\AccountingBackup to \NASserver\media\USB_HDD_4\AccountingBackup
where:
\NASserver is my new ReadyNAS 3130
\data\AccountingBackup is my SMB share on the NAS server
\media\USB_HDD_4\AccountingBackup is the destination folder on the removable media device
How do I do that with Rsync through the New Backup Job dialog?
The RSYNC process should
create the destination folder if it is not there
Overwrite any older (not matching) files with new files from the share
Report any status or errors
Is this possible? JMc
