May 4, 20197 yr Hi, can any of you please confirm if i'm right about the difference between the next two commands? 1: rsync -a -v /mnt/user/ISOs $MOUNTPOINT/ 2>&1 vs 2: rsync -a -v --delete /mnt/user/ISOs $MOUNTPOINT/ 2>&1 The second one deletes files from the target that were deleted from the source, no? The first one is more like a real backup. Wich is what i'm trying to accomplish... Thanks, Aran.
May 5, 20197 yr Author 👍 Thanks. I couldn't get Duplicati to work with shares bigger than 10Gig's so I will use this method for now.

The first one is more like a real backup. Wich is what i'm trying to accomplish... I came to ask exactly this... but I WANT to force a share to be a master that's already being rsynced. I've been deleting and retagging like mad, and I now want the backup to delete all old files I've already changed. I've been extremely careful, and the files are backed up to a 3rd location. I'm assuming I can modify my current unraid script to the above command with delete and 2>&1 ? So I'm clear (and that's a big hurdle with scripts for me) - is the the comment 2>&1 defining which share is the master? thanks
