Hi All,
I have backups running (thanks @Rusty and @EAZ1964 ) from 1st synology nas to 2nd NAS using Hyperbackup with the following settings
The issue is that the backup folder on the 2nd NAS is becoming too big as it reserves all backup files from the 1st NAS which is by design.
I am looking for something which can check files on 1st NAS and 2nd NAS, identify excess files replicated on the 2nd NAS and delete them.
I tried using the following
Is there something within the synology NAS which can do the above instead?
I have backups running (thanks @Rusty and @EAZ1964 ) from 1st synology nas to 2nd NAS using Hyperbackup with the following settings
- Backup type - Rsync
- Options - reserve backup file at destination
- With this i have a backup method that results in a file/fodler structure in the 2nd NAS, withut the hyperbackup proprietary format or tools

I tried using the following
- creating another hyper backup task using rsync without the 'reserver backup file at destination' option. Cannot do this as the shared folder in 1st NAS is already in use in another task
- creating a SHARED FOLDER SYNC job in Control Panel. This creates another copy which is actually the opposite of what i want and cannot work.
net use X: \\WAN_IP\folder /user:domain\user password #1st NAS
net use Y:\\internal_IP\folder /user:domain\user password #2nd NAS
robocopy X:\INS Recover Y:\INS Recovery /E /XC /XN /XO /XL /purge /COPY: DAT /MINAGE:7 /W:1 /R:1
net use X: /delete /Y
net use Y: /delete /Y
Is there something within the synology NAS which can do the above instead?
