In .7 I could setup local Rsync (disk to disk) tasks in the GUI.
I don't see how to do that in 8.x. Do I use the GUI under "Rsync Tasks" and set the Remote Host to the loop back address? Or is the only way to learn the command line and schedule cron jobs?
Or is there a better way to schedule daily syncs of two disk drives/file systems?
Background...
I use my FreeNAS server for network backups. The Windows PCs backup to my FreeNAS server via RSYNC to one set of disks. A few hours before that is scheduled to run I want my FreeNAS server to sync that set of drives to another set. That way I have last night's files and the previous night's files.
