Re: Check if NFS mount is mounted before running job

Oh. Brilliant.

That will work most of the time I think.

Sometimes when the NFS server is down, and my computer is rebooted, it can't mount the NFS mount but the folder is still there on the root disk. And so sometimes files end up writing to it.

But this should work good enough for me.

Or ...

Check if NFS mount is mounted before running job

I have an NFS mount on my Linux server. Sometimes the NFS server is unavailable and is not mounted.

How can I tell Syncovery to first check if the NFS mount is mounted before running the job? If it is not mounted, then don't run the job.

Re: Best way to configure Syncovery on multiple machines that sync with each other to avoid conflicts


sufficient to activate the option "Automatically resume (copy with interim filenames, keep incomplete files when stopped)" on the Files tab sheet.


Got it. Thanks!


It will involve implementing multiple PascalScript hook functions, not just OnCanRunProfile


If you tell me what other hook ...

Re: Best way to configure Syncovery on multiple machines that sync with each other to avoid conflicts

I had a thought.

The OnCanRunProfile function, what happens after the postponed time is up? Does it run OnCanRunProfile again or will it then run the script?

My thought was before a profile starts, use OnCanRunProfile to check if a file exists. If the file exists it waits and checks again in a ...

Re: Feature Suggestion: Encrypted Backup Viewer

Alternatively, what about a log file that dumps source file name and destination encrypted name. When you want a file, you can search the log file and then pull the file you want?

Re: Feature suggestion: Compress/encrypt by file extension

I have a hack solution.

Create multiple profiles with their own include/exclude masks.

One profile does everything but system image files and does encrypt. One profile that does just system image files and does not encrypt.

Hacky but it should work?

Best way to configure Syncovery on multiple machines that sync with each other to avoid conflicts

I'm wondering if there are specific settings that link Syncovery on different machines so we can say things like don't run this profile on this machine until a profile on another machine is done .

This is my setup:


Linux server: serve
exposes a share: /data
Linux client: desk
2x Windows ...

Re: Configure a profile to run on schedule but wait if another profile is running, and folder monitoring in Linux

Out of curiosity, will the Maximum simultaneously running jobs (profiles): setting work as I'm thinking in that only one profile will run and other profiles will wait until it is done before starting?

Meaning, if I set this to 1 then I wouldn't need the script, right?

Re: Configure a profile to run on schedule but wait if another profile is running, and folder monitoring in Linux


Hello,
please see the "OnCanRunProfile Sample Script" on our PascalScript page:
https://www.syncovery.com/pascalscript/

Folder Monitoring is not available in the Linux version of Syncovery because Linux does not provide a suitable API for recursive monitoring.

There's only non-recursive, and ...
