RSync - am i missing something obvious? (RN312/RN102 with 6.10.4)
I feel like I am missing something obvious but I don't see it. I have used Rsync on Unix and I think I know the concepts. :-) Source is RN312 running 6.10.4. Target is RN102 also running 6.10....

I am having the exact same symptom on a deployment with a 3312 backing up to a 314. When running on 6.10.3 the Rsync via SSH functions correctly to backup the entire volume (/data), but if I upgrade to 6.10.4 the back-up says it runs successfully in a few seconds (should take it a few hours nightly) and dones't update any of the files, but will only update folder structure changes. For now I reverted back to 6.10.3 for now and rsync works again. Hoping for a fix on this. Different problem, but still not fixed, the backup setup still messes up the destination file address with an extra "\" when using the gui and I have to edit it out of the backup scripts via ssh before the rsync via SSH even works to begin with.

You could also temporarily run the rsync backup job(s) on the RN314 (which will work with 6.10.4).
