hi
I trying to sync 2 freenas's both being main server and a backup server
I tried the replication data set didn't like it as it erases files and takes forever
I tried rysnc but it buggers up when you resync it creates a new folder..
so what I want is 2 Main servers that back up to each other.. 1 will be at my house 2nd be at my sisters house.. now if I add a file to my server I want it to sync to my sisters freenas.. now if she adds files to her server then I want it to sync that data to my folder
problem is I I set the mount say on my server /mnt/mediaserver/ and my sisters freenas also /mnt/mediaserver now when I replicate to her server it works but if I add a file on her server same folder say /mnt/mediaserver/testing it will recreate on both servers /mnt/mediaserver/testing/mediaserver and replicate all the data back into into testing/mediaserver
its not syncing exactly same location how you fix this.. as I wanna use it for my movies so if she adds movie it replicate in right spot
2nd issue I have is plex server doesn't auto check for folder changes but ill worry about that later but I just having issues
so what I have on each server is a push task to send the files and a pull to receicve the files...
or is there another program that can update back and forth... and I found out I also cant delete some folders it replicated I now need unix/root access and I should yet I blocked out of it had to pull the hard drive shove in windows machine and delete the partition as even trying to detach and wipe the drive gave errors and so did trying to delete the datasheet main one..
so I kinda annoyed with this software but its free so I cant complain too much I just having difficultys rysncing back and forth
