It’s the Rsync portion of the backup process that I am trying to get to work correctly.  I know the Timestamp method on backup #1 will not filter anything.

It backup #2 from NAS to NAS using the Rsync protocol that should be filtering out the file and folders.  In fact it is filtering out the file types just fine it’s only the folders it is not filtering.

Hello Jeff_howard,

 

I see. So, you are reporting only the 2nd backup which is NAS-to-NAS via RSYNC.

 

Are you getting any error in the backup job logs?
