Hi,
I would like to setup two harddrives to backup (w/o increments) two other harddrives without linking them with RAID.
So here is what I want:
HDD w/Jail --> HDD1Backup
HDD w/misc Storage --> HHD2Backup
I wanted to do this with Rsync tool bundled into Freenas 8 but it seems to only support Freenas --> External distant storage. So I went with a cron job with excludes of mnt, sys and tmp but exlude does not work, so all mnt fs are copied in the process.
I wonder if there's a simple way to make local HDD to HDD backups on Freenas 8, or if I have to figure a DIY way ? If rsync w/cron is the only option, what would be the best rsync command to copy everything without increments and without dynamic folders like mnt or sys or tmp ?
