A file sync tool that allows multiple sources to one destination. Mikeflan - This (FreeFileSync) looks exactly what I am looking for. It's what I did when I first started, but then found timeshift/backintime and they did everything I wanted. You could write your own scripts to drive rsync the way you want. Your #3 could be met with another profile in backintime. I don't understand what your problem is with backintime - it does what you want - if anything on the source is deleted, the destination files are kept - they are in the snapshot before you deleted the files, just setup the options on the auto-remove tab never to delete anything. I also have multiple profiles in backintime (I only backup my VMs monthly). Use an ext4 filesystem.īackintime will save to another filesystem but is more space efficient with a linux filesystem (hardlinks). I suspect your other drive/partition is formatted either ntfs or fat. Your problem with timeshift is that the destination must be a linux filesystem (for support of all linux file attributes). Timeshift and backintime run automatically on a daily basis (bit over the top for timeshift). I use timeshift and backintime, both saving snapshots to a separate internal removable drive. Ideally I could replace 2b) and 3) with one tool and be able to add more source folders over time. Annoyingly I can't set the path to another drive, so it resides on my system drive.Ī) I have one profile to copy my home folder to my permanently attached ZFS poolī) I have another profile to copy my home folder + monthly snapshot from Timeshift to my externally removable drive for the safeģ - Grsync - I then have grsync set up to copy my photo library from my ZFS pool to my externally removable drive for the safe
Some more background on my current backup strategy:ġ - I am using Timeshift to do a system backup. I don't think I can set up Back In Time this way, so any recommendations for a more powerful grsync? I just want whatever is on the source folders to be copied to the destination drive, and if anything on the source is deleted, the destination files are kept. I don't need snapshots, which is what I believe Back In Time is for. Question: I have set up a few tools, but need some pointers to a better version of grsync as I would like a utility that support rsync of files for my photo library and home folder to my external drive to stick in the safe.

This would back up my mac home folder and entire photo library (the latter is 1.5TB) to an external disk I could keep in a safe or off-site. On my Mac I was used to using two types of backup utlities, which would both backup to one drive that I could stick in my fireproof safe:Ģ - iBackup (grapefruit.ch), which was a great rsync utility to copy (not snapshot) from multiple source folders to a destination folder. At the bottom of this thread I have a stop-gap) The migration is complete and last step is the important backup process.

I am finally migrating my Mac Pro to Linux and have landed with Mint. (Background: I'm new to Mint, been a long time distro-hopper since 2012 out of curiosity / running a few old laptops for the kids.
