Rsync Enhancements

[nogi]

Currently using FreeNAS 8.0.2-Release and rsync between 2 FreeNAS boxes. It would be great if we could get some additional functionality with rsync around

• Some sort of progress counter/bar
• Option to manual start a scheduled rsync task

• Some sort of progress counter/bar

Really not sure how that would work - what if you've got several rsync jobs all executing at once?

If you want logging/progress, add the relevant arguments to "Extra options" (rsync task) to bump up the logging, or on the receiving side "Auxiliary parameters" (eg. log file=/var/log/rsyncd.log; transfer logging=true; log format="%o %h [%a] %m (%u) [%i] %f %l").
