What the BeyondCompare utility shows post-backup:
There are a *lot* of files that are being copied a-ok... it's just those few and there are no Excluded Files & Folders save "Recycle Bin":

There is a fix in 6.7.5 that applies to your backup job
- Fixed an issue where rsync local-to-remote backup jobs would only back up the top-level folder.

Updated to 6.7.5, rebooted, re-ran the backup twice, but no change: same results.
Any other thoughts?

Re: Backup Job Not Copying Certain Files
I'm assuming you checked the backup log, and didn't find any errors.
Maybe try creating a second empty share, and create a new backup job for it, and see if that copies everything? If so, you could delete the primary share, and rename the second one.
That's at best a workaround though, so you'd need to keep monitoring the backup to make sure everything was copied.

Re: Backup Job Not Copying Certain Files
Yes: Log looks good as far as I can see. I am guessing that the list of source-device shares at the end of the log is normal.
I manually synch'd both shares yesterday, and now am down to two diffs that were created late yesterday afternoon.
Here's the log:
Backup Job Name: Temp
Backup Job Type: Incremental
Protocol: rsync
Backup Source: [remote:rsync]/NAS::
Backup Destination: [Temp]/
Backup Start Time: Tue Jul 4 2017 9:02:00
Backup Finish Time: Tue Jul 4 2017 9:02:04
Backup Status: Success
$OriginalRips "DVD-Format, not backed up daily"
A "Backed up daily"
B "Mainly media - not backed up daily"
SysImages "System Images Mirrored to Mongo, copied to Book"
Temp "Landing zone for files we don't care about long-term"

I am confused by this stuff, there's nothing like it in my logs.

Re: Backup Job Not Copying Certain Files
Don't feel like the Lone Ranger.... -)
But I have deleted the log and rerun at least 3 times and the same stuff keeps getting appended.
FWIW, it appears to be a listing of each share and it's "Remarks" on the Ultra-6 that the backup job is reading from

Re: Backup Job Not Copying Certain Files
Do you get the same results if you run the rsync job on the other NAS?
