sync archives

Guest
with vacations I had the opportunity and time to try synctoy 2.0, free software downloadable from the microsoft site along with powertoys.
powerful, fast, light and full of all possible imaginable options.
I liked it a lot, I tested it on "important" archives without losing a shot.

Even you're busy with summer cleaning, huh? :-)
I, strictly at night :rolleyes: I just finished reducing three external hds (plus laptop) with partial backups, doubles, flight saves entire folders etc in a single archive finally ordered. interpreting the trinity to comparison would have been perhaps easier... :redface:
now I have to find a backup software that does not require a degree in space engineering (we accept advice), then I take a nas and I hope for a few years to move on equal:smile:

backup sw that automatically do it?
Do you want an aggressive advice?
I made myself a .bat file that uses winrar to compress the folders that I place in the .bat and then copy it to a remote drive.
to do it automatically, I use uindos programming.
If you're interested, I'll pass...

I would like some kind of acknowledgment that I can then forget my existence so I thought about a nas on the network from which to regularly and especially automatically backups, without having to worry, once I set the partition where I keep the data, to select folders or files to add.
you have to try some programs to understand how they work; At the moment they are totally "ignorant" in the matter:redface:

Hello and thank you
 
with the "synchronize" option keeps you "consistent" two archives of your choice, making it automatic should not be complicated with the windows history.
What I like is that you can create a series of "gemelli" (called "pair") give them a name and you can sync different things in different places or equal things in different places.
then the options are beautiful, the most beautiful is the "contribute" where the pair of folders (pair) become equal by adding everything that is different between the two starting archives, very useful for the disorders like me who insist on working at the same time both on the original archive and on the copy then pretend after years to know what to hold of one or the other (without remembering more than the version "

Shut up, shut up, every year I decide, I'm done, I'm all right, and then I'm lost in a tide of files, folders, dates, a nightmare, and I'm gonna let it go. . .

I had to decide this time why I really risked a cataclysm of epochal dimensions: 3hd external and two internals left from upgrades with everything inside I have done since I use the pc, in folders never synchronized with the older data discreetly scattered. :redface:
for comparison of directories and files and synchronization I used beyond appears (fabulous) without which I would not have come to head. after having transported everything in one copying also those folders that had been renamed compared to those of the older hd (give me the culprit that impaloe... :rolleyes:) I used doublekiller pro (a whistle is exceptional) to find, select and delete duplicate files.
to rename whole series of image files I used renamer that allows you to apply the most amazing criteria that come to mind to change the file names.
as when ordering in the cellar have jumped out the most amazing things:smile:
It was a good effort, but now I'm quiet. I have duplicated everything and I have to "only" arrange for a backup (re-sgrat!) done well and automatic.

Well, I just forgot. . .
is "programmed" to start automatically every holy day at 12.35 (while they are at lunch), compact the folders on which I work and those of my user profile and once the compaction is finished copy it to a server disk
If I don't go to lunch and it bothers me, I close it and I keep the backup of the day before.. .
 
I attach the script that backs up from the disks of the linux server on an external hard drive usb. It's a file for linux.

tomorrow I attach what I use to copy the data on the server's hard drive to the hard drive of workstations, so it can be used in windows environment.

In both cases, the backup procedure is very rough, it just cancels the old copy and then writes a new one.

on the server I also have timed backups automatically of some important data (rubber, agenda, e-mail), if to someone interested in the related instructions for linux I can insert them.

Bye.

interesting with synctoy (in my case) the action "echo" and the option "check files contained"
 
This is the script for windows that copies data from the server disk, which is mapped as "g" on the workstation disk ("d").

I use this .bat instead and then I run it every day with the "planned operations" of uinidos.. .

as I said, create a back-mbt.rar file, encrypted with passwords, containing folders c:\labor and "my documents" with all subfolders.
then copy everything on the server.
Of course, if I want to add more folders, I just have to add rows.... :smile:

porca misery, it is so much that I look for a backup utility that synchronizes me two locations in one direction, and little soft that does? puts you at your disposal a program that works (it is for small soft is not really a common thing) and even free...free!

great! there is only one problem...it does not propagate the cancellations...but for this you can turn once every couple of months a more professional program like allwaysync, which by the way only used for this also works in the free version. . .

I risked synctoy doing the biggest damage to my career.
Let me explain.
I work systematically with the desk in the office and then synchronize on the laptop the contract that I am running, so that, if in the evening there is a bat to do and I want to wash, I continue the work to mess. (if in the morning I do not want to go to the office because it snows or I have a huge pimple on the nose, I continue the work without problem ).
It happened that I brought the finished job from home to the office, I deleted old files from the desk And I threw synctoy.
final result : I didn't have the files anymore.:frown.
this because the synctoy file that tracks movements on the files felt that the most recent operation made on the store was la cancellazione.
Fortunately I had not cleaned the basket yet and had already prepared the pack & go for the customer, but I assure you that the heart stopped and I am whitened as a sheet (not to mention the damage to the few hair left )

moral, be careful.

Bye.
 
the behavior of the program however is correct.
If you had used the preview you would have noticed the problem.. .
 
but more than anything... if you delete everything, why do you use backup? Don't you just make a copy?

tried cobian. I don't like it much... I renamed a file and he copied it as if it was new. synctoy instead recognizes the file and renames it, I don't know if it is based on hash or timestamp, but it doesn't matter if one does not play with the dates of the pc.

I still need a synchronizer more than a backuppatore.

Instead, a beautiful program, perhaps the best I tried is uranium backup. do whatever you want, including sending email notification to alert you to the status of backups. the synchronia (it is called "direct copy") but it is part of the paid version, and even if it costs a nonsense, it is not what I look for now.

other very good programs are allwaysync (free up to a number of operations) and vice versa (payable).
