I have 3 NAS devices:
I have been unable to setup Rsync as I believe there are some issues with it on Synology.
I am able to map source and target as CIFS on a Windows box and robocopy /mirror the directories, but this is laborious and I would like to avoid CIFS if possible.
What I have now is an init script on my FreeNAS box mapping the Synology share as NFS. Theoretically, all I need to do at this point is mirror /mnt/synology with /POOL2/Backup-Pictures
Do I use a local rsync for this? If so, can I set that up with the GUI? Should I make a cron script to do this? What is the most efficient way to mirror and also bring over permission, date/time, etc?
