comet424 Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 hi im just playing around learning this unraid and i have tried rsync on freenas and i kinda like it but it didnt work in bidirectional when you set it up it was mirroring files in folders and repeat what i want is 2 unraid severs 1 at my house 1 at my sisters house... to hold my movies doctuments photos... if i add a file to the photos folder it will replicate it on my sisters unriad.. and if she adds a file to her server in the same folders it will replicate on my unraid server.. so there is no master.. they be bother master and slave at the same time which program works well for unriad or is there.. or is that a feature to come to unraid?

zzgus Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I think rsync will do the job executed on both server every hour/day/week...But I suppose you know if you delete an important picture (for example), the picture will be deleted on both servers. It’s very dangerous and this will not work as a backup solution.GusEnviado desde mi iPhone utilizando Tapatalk Pro Link to comment
comet424 Posted June 28, 2018 Author Share Posted June 28, 2018 ah one how do you get notifications i didnt get any notifications you guys commented as for dropbox i dont use it.. what i wanted was like even if i moved a file from a diffection locations say familypics/2017 to familypics/2017-2018 just making it up that it would also move those files on the other server so it know its been moved and added... guess no simple solution for bidrectional syncing as for rsync i tried it in Freenas it worked one direction ok.. but if you were doing bi direction if you had a file in say /mediaserver it would replicate itself and copy so it be like /mediaserver/mediaserver/mediaserver/mediaserver/mediaserver so replicated the file and so oon as a continous copying so i figured maybe unraid is a better solution for syncing so i could have 2 copies of everything and it would bidirectional sync or seems id have to make folder for my sister and it would replicated to myserver then id move it to proper foldering and then it would replicate back just sucks when you have a 5 megabit download and a 600kilobite upload lol Link to comment
zippyd00 Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 Check out Resilio Sync (formerly BTSync) container. I'm using it to keep my offsite backup server up to date, but it would indeed work bidirectionally as well. Link to comment
