nightanole Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 My current backup solution is some premade robocopy bat files, ran on some hot swap drives on my windows box. I just pop in the drive, drop to dos, run the script, and the swap to the next hdd and run its script. Nuttin fancy. However now my server is ran off a power line adapter, and instead of getting 100 meg a sec, im getting 35 meg (still not bad). Im wondering how do i adapt my solution to run off of drives(ntfs gpt) that are popped directly into the unraid box using unassigned devices, so i dont have to transfer over the network. Is there a magic docker i can install that i can rig up a simple script for each backup drive to; replace file if changed/new, delete file if deleted at source. Midnight commander Rsync Krusader Dolphin Im willing to use anything, even via putty telnet since its what i kinda do now with my manual start bat files. Quote Link to comment
John_M Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 You can make the Unassigned Devices plugin automatically run a script whenever you plug in an external USB disk. Several people use that as an effective backup method. If you want to put the disks inside your server so that they are permanently mounted using UD you could use the User Scripts plugin to schedule regular backup tasks.

trurl Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 If you look in the first post of Unassigned Devices thread, it has example scripts including one which uses rsync. This is basically what I do. Quote Link to comment
Braulio Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) Hey, guys. I created a backup script analyzing other scripts. The script make backup to PLUG & PLAY devices or FIXED devices and make incremental or sync backup. Any suggestions or corrections are welcome.
