I haven't tried Duplicati, but I was previously using a Mac with USB Drives, so I used to use a Mac app ChronoSync, which is a very nice GUI wrapper for rsync, basically. Copying everything over to UNRAID, I used rsync and got the syntax figured out, so decided "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" kind of thing. rsync!

I'm not versed with tape solutions, but couldn't you just set up a VM and pass thru the tape drive to an OS that can interact? EDIT: Apologies, II think you meant the LTO comment as a 'warm storage' application, not cold backup, my bad.

I'm looking at setting up a 2nd Unraid box using the cheapest drives I can at a remote location for backups. 44TB ain't going to crash plan any time soon, even on 100meg upload.

I've noticed the same thing with that plugin. I wasn't sure if I was doing something wrong, or it was. You need to call a killall rsync Maybe set up another user script to just be that? Personally, here's my script. I'm not sure it's the best way to go, but it's working for now. I figure if the two parity disk rebuild fails me, I can clear the array and copy and merge everything together if needed... Maybe someone has a better way than our rsync ideas? #!/bin/bash #BKP DISK to BKP DISK. rsync -avhP /mnt/disk3/ /mnt/disks/BKP_DISK3/bkp_3/ 2>&1 | tee /mnt/user/Storage/UNRAIDbkpSCRIPTS/log_disk3.txt d=$(date +%Y-%m-%d) echo $d >> /mnt/user/Storage/UNRAIDbkpSCRIPTS/lastrun-DISK3.txt cp /mnt/user/Storage/UNRAIDbkpSCRIPTS/lastrun-DISK3.txt /mnt/disks/BKP_DISK3/lastrun-DISK3.txt
