Thanks, it works perfectly  I have learnt a lot with you

 

Together with this Script (the first one in my life) and Kopia I have tune up my backup system 

 

#!/bin/bash
/usr/local/emhttp/webGui/scripts/notify -e "Unraid Server Notice" -s "OneDrive backup started" -d "Synchronizing Kopia backup to OneDrive" -i "normal"
echo 'OneDrive backup started'

rclone sync /mnt/user/Backup/Kopia OneDrive:"/Backup/Kopia"

/usr/local/emhttp/webGui/scripts/notify -e "Unraid Server Notice" -s "OneDrive backup finished" -d "Synchronization completed" -i "normal"
echo 'One Drive backup completed'

 

good deal! glad it all worked out.

You are my Hero!

After 3 Hours searching for a possibility to daily Backup the Flashdrive or its content i found this script.

 

And what to say...

Create Folders

C&P the Script

Fill the blanks

Set the Schedule

Fire and Forget

 

Awesome! Thank you

 

P.S: optional e-mail notification would be nice (i'm not so ften on my unraid gui)

Glad you like it! At the moment, i don't have enough hours in the day to tackle e-mail notifications for this. Maybe someone else could tack on and i'd be happy to add to the OP. If not, perhaps at some point in the future I could see what i can do in that regard. Cheers!

The Notification is only GUI?

No Mail or others when this in the Notification Settings defined?

[wgstarks]

I get email notifications.

[Revan335]

Great!

I get it too!

 

Many Thanks!

[wgstarks]

I only use email notifications but it’s my understanding that whatever forms of notification you have enabled will be used.

I know I'm late to this party but, I tried this script and found my "native unraid backup script" is missing/deleted. 

 

Has the native backup script referenced been removed by the Unraid updates due to the backing up to their online? If so, any chance on updating the script to to work without the native one?

 

Anyways thank you. 

[coppertop27]

Nevermind. I fixed it.

 

But thank you for the scripts. This one and the Plex one!!!!

Thanks a lot for this great script. Found this page after restoring my USB flash drive that recently died and realising that the last backup happened to be 1.5 years old 🙄

So I am brand new to unraid, just built my first server this past weekend. I previous only had synology NAS for about a year. Mainly running plex server.

 

I ran the script from watching the youtube video, I copied the script from your google link in the video description. My destination was a remote SMB share on my synology NAS. So the only thing I did different from your video was the destination and changed my tower name in the notification part and removed the # from the beginning. However after I manually ran the script it caused my server to crash. Kept saying directory not found over and over. WEBGUI was not working and I had to unplug my server from power and reboot. Im running on Unraid 6.11.5. 

 

Does this still work and does it work for Remote SMB shares?

How's the remote smb share mounted? It would need to be mounted, that'd have to be checked etc

Yeah it is mounted.
