Synchronizing Files with the RSync Server

Use this procedure to synchronize files between the appliance and a local folder, when RSync Access is configured. For information, see Configuring RSync Access.

To synchronize files with the RSync Server

• Run the following command:

  rsync --recursive userName@deviceIP :/shareName localFolder

  Where:

  • userName is the username.
  • deviceIP is the appliance IP address.
  • shareName is the name of the network share on the appliance.
  • localFolder is the name of the local folder.

  For example, if the username is user1, the appliance IP address is 10.1.1.1, the name of the network share is share9, and the local folder is /var/mnt/share9, the relevant command would be:

  rsync –-recursive user1@10.1.1.1 :/share9 /var/mnt/share9
