Hi all..
im using Rsync to copy backup files made on NAS1 to NAS2 for redundency.
My problem is my backup progra makes sure to cleanup the backup on NAS1 so its only the files for the retention period that is left on NAS1. My RSYNC job doesn't do the same. Which means old jobs are stored on NAS2.
Is there a parameter to set so Rsync makes sure share on NAS2 is Identical to whats on the share on NAS1?
Thanks!
not sure to have fully understood your scenario but you can have a look here http://superuser.com/questions…-the-rsync-delete-optionsor maybe better at the man page of rsync program
I think you simply have to add
option in your script
hope it helps
Hi .. reading your link i think you are right about the attribute needed.
I set this up using the gui so im unsure how to add your attribute this way?
are both NAS1 and NAS2 OMV machines?
how did you set the rsync job/module?
They are both OMW
I get confused when you say Sync job/module? It sounds like i need to install a plugin which i haven't
I just go to services->Rsync
Nas1 is the target NAS for the backup.
Nas2 is where the backup data needs to be pushed to after the backup software has completed its backup on NAS1
NAS2 is configured as a server port 873
NAS1 has a job pushing (using rsync) the content of its backup folder to NAS 2
So the Rsync job on NAS 1 is set like this:
Enabled = Check
Type = Remote
Mode = Push
Sourch shared folder = the backup folder is chosen
Destination server = rsync://administrator@192.168.0.107/backup
Password = Password for administrator is given..
I do see an Extra options text filed in the rsync job? perhaps i should just put in my "-delete" attribute there?
did you follow this guide?
Rsync two OMV machines
yes i did follow that guide..
but that doesn't tell me where to put the attribute?
quite strange it doesn't work if you followed the guide....I used the guide some months ago for a job and it perfectly worked
please check again on point 4 of the guide for Machine B:
ZitatDelete files on the receiving side that don´t exist on sender (IF you want this)
this is the delete option on rsync-job to be checked
