Versioning is something Duplicati does very well. You may prefer versions so that you can undo problems. If it’s mirrored on top of the old one (is it?) then any damage, mistakes, or removal of any file on Unraid that stays around long enough to go in the mirror means you lost the good file. If i change a file in the sub folder it syncs it with backup once a week, its mirrored What you’re talking about with keeping the source tree shape at the destination is more what a sync does. How does hbs3 backup different versions of a file? Complete files? What about the rest of the unchanged files? Some backups at least don’t upload the complete set of files for every backup, but they might upload complete changed files. If Duplicati is ever able to add subfolders these won’t likely be source folder names, which are stored in a similar way to files, thus get timestamps, securitity attributes, and no character sensitivities depending on the destination (you can backup file and folder names the destination can’t write).
Is freefilesync good zip file#
zip file has a group of blocks that may be part of a number of different source files. If you’re saying that you want a zip file per source file, that’s totally contrary to a deduplicated block-based backup where a single.


Right ? I can be wrong, at the moment how hbs3 uploads is the way it is, in the shares I use neither Unraid nor Docker, but any info on which Docker you got and how it’s hooked into Unraid?
Is freefilesync good how to#
How to install / configure a Duplicati Docker container (unRAID) I have little idea how much help Unraid provides, but I saw an old video showing non-Duplicati screens. What’s puzzling if it’s an access-to-host-files problem is that it seemingly did get to the initial four files…Īny host directory that you want to back up needs to be mounted into the container using the -v option. I don’t use Docker, but my impression is sometimes access needs to be set up. Makes me think Duplicati’s Docker container is on Unraid (which I think is based on Linux) with a more direct access path that doesn’t go over SMB but does have to get out of its Docker container to access requested source files. Unraid is a nas kind of os, and yes duplicati is a docker / container Your original four files didn’t change, so you probably won’t see the second and third lines about that.

16:52:35 -05 - : File has changed you don’t get something like the first line for all of the expected files, then maybe the view from the container is wrong somehow, but at least it “should” be consistent with what you got on source tree. 16:52:19 -05 - : Including path as no filters matched: 16:52:21 -05 - : Checking file for changes new: False, timestamp changed: True, size changed: True, metadatachanged: True, 9:39:44 PM vs 1:21:30 PM Here’s an example, although it’s from a log file so it’s chronological order and the format is more verbose: If not or too confusing, paste screenshots or text. Returning to the log screen shows a reverse-chronological information log which should show the folder and files you selected. Starting at Home screen, click About, Show log, Live, then pick Verbose from the dropdown to enable log.įrom the backup tab, run backup. Using another tab open to Duplicati is a good way to set up and not miss anything (this might be quick…). Here, the idea is to see if the log looks like what you are expecting. Normally you just select files and folders to back up. You should be able to see the folder and files go by in the log. Do you see the “missing” files? What’s checkmarked? If it’s not checkmarked, it won’t be backed up.
Is freefilesync good manual#
Edit the current job, go to screen 3 where you selected your Source Data folders and files (see the manual for an example), look at your folder and files. I assume Creating a new backup job shows what you once did.
