Hi,
I'm trying to do a rsnapshot backup of an unraid share to a backup disk setup as a pool device. It seems to get terminated after 3 hours each time. Any clues as to what could be doing this? I'm new to this so could be an error in config and crontab so included those.
Thanks, Carl

# When sync_first is enabled, it changes the default behaviour of rsnapshot.
# Normally, when rsnapshot is called with its lowest interval
