Hi guys
Been using freenas on an HP microserver in our office for just over a year now. Our ZFS data pool has 3x 2TB drives and 8gb ram.
I've built an identical machine with the idea of having a disaster proof solution so if the building at work burns down (or some other disaster) then we still have our data stored on a machine at my house.
I want the machine to do an rsync copy every night so it doesn't interfere with our work during the day, I've seen this documentation in the freenas guide http://doc.freenas.org/index.php/Rsync_Tasks but it doesn't describe too well how to get the data to copy to an offsite freenas server.
I tried to setup the two machines side by side for the first rsync but with the lack of a progress bar I couldn't tell if what I'd done was working.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm getting nervous about my data now!
Thanks
Alex
