February 19, 20233 yr Edit: I figured out my main issue of syncing to a specific folder in my bucket. I had a typo in one of my settings. However, if there are any thoughts about my other two questions, ideas would be appreciated. Mainly if I could set up multiple different sync folders. Now that I've figured out my main issue, I may be able to figure this one out. Maybe it takes spinning up multiple containers, one for each sync. But again, if you have ideas, that would be great. I am almost complete setting up my new unRaid server, which will be taking the place of my current file server, running on Ubuntu. My current server uses Cloudberry backup to backup my files to my AWS S3 bucket. So currently everything is already backed up in a path like, s3://mybucket/CBB_ubuntu-server/CBB_VOLUMES/ As far as I know there isn't a way to relocated the data on my bucket to a different folder (I'm storing it glacier deep archive), otherwise I would try to move the contents up a directory or two so that it would be at the root of my bucket. But I don't think that's possible. So what I'm trying to do is just get the data on my current server backing up to that same location in my bucket. I'm trying to use the s3sync docker app to do this. But docker container aside, I don't even know the right CLI to make s3 sync go to a different subfolder in my bucket. As it is now, if I configure it as default, it will sync everything in /data (container path) to s3://mybucket. But is there way to tell it to sync to s3://mybucket/CBB_ubuntu-server/CBB_VOLUMES/? I've tried just adding that path to the bucket field in the container, but doesn't seem to work. Anyone know how to do that? Also, it seems that this container is just built to sync one folder and it's contents to my bucket. But what if I want to set up different folders to sync? I've obviously had to re-structure my data quite a bit due to the way shares are setup in unRAID. So I'd like to set s3sync to backup on the one share that is already backed up to my bucket (and not have to write much because it's already sync'd), and then set up different syncs for each of my other shares. Maybe to different buckets, but more likely to just different sub folders in the same bucket. Really just trying to avoid re-backing up all the data in my S3 bucket, incurring more transfer charges and just taking a long time lol. Any ideas would be appreciated.
