LIke to backup from a shared windows folder to OMV 6

  • Hi

    I'm very new to OMV but it looks very nice and I think I can use it alot.

    I have install it on a orange pi and connect a USB harddrive so I can backup from a windows share folder to USB disk with help from OMV.


    Right now I run a backup/sync software from the windows that have the share folder and have connect that to a shared folder that I have create inside OMV.


    But I'm curious if i can use OMV to use some kind of backup/sync itself.


    I have see it have Rsync and also borgbackup but not sure what to use.


    I did install "Remote Mount" but I get a error when I trying to mount to my windows share folder


    Just hope to find a easy backup/sync that run ever weekend and copy from my windows share folder to my USB harddrive and send a e-mail with a log.

  • Back again

    Rsync work nice when I push the button "Run" but not when I set time


    Example I have


    Minute 20

    Hour 21

    Day of month *

    Month *

    Day of week *


    so it was going to start att 21.20 and the clock it set corret in OMV but nothing happend and I can't see any running in the Rsync - Jobs log.

    I can't see any running in the Rsync - Jobs log.

    With a Scheduled Task, you won't see Rsync running. It runs in the background.

    Your settings should work.


    Did you check the "Enabled" box?

    So how do I know if it working

    You don't. That's what E-mail notification is for, to give you command output conveniently. If you're worried about it, you could pipe the rsync command line output to a text file in one of your network shares.

    >> /path-to-your-network-share/rsync_jobs.txt

    You could test it with a known new file in the source. Then look to see if the new transfers after the job.

    I did not get any email

    When you set up your notifications section System, Notification, Settings:

    There's a test button by Save. Did you test your settings?
