Rsync not syncing
I have been using rsync to backup a large directory full of pictures from one ReadyNAS device to another. Or so I thought. I set it up some time ago, and clearly stopped checking it was working,...
But the log says it is. I think they are being copied into Backup Pictures/Pictures because you have no trailing forward slash after the destination directory name.
The Never suggestion returned a success notification, but only took 1m6secs...checked the directories and they're still not fully sync'd 😞

Try looking in the full log zip file of both systems, and see if you can find any issues in either. Look in system.log, kernel.log, and systemd-journal.log.
What OS version are you running? There was a known bug some versions back, though this doesn't really seem to be that since it does appear to be copying at least some files.
6.10.8 on both units.
One thing I haven't checked is whether it actually is copying anything now...will test that.
So it doesn't look like anything is actually being copied...dropped the file "Hoodies Mockup.jpg"
Started the backup and it looked to work....
Looks to have received it from the source share....
But nothing appears (refreshed File Explorer a few times...)
Could it be permissions related maybe?
