Syncovery Support Forum

Hi,

I have a particular situation here that I`m trying to resolve and I`m not sure what to do at this point.

I am copying multiple folders from site A to site B and need to do an exact mirror of the folders because I don`t want the site B to have deleted files from site A, so far so good.

Now the problem is that I need to transfer some folders from the root of site A to a subfolder of side B in a special arrangement like this:

Side A:
\Folder1
\Folder2
\Folder3

To:

Side B:
\Folder1
\Folder1\Folder2
\Folder1\Folder3

On the subsequent runs Syncovery detects Folder2 and Folder3 on side B and since it`s an exact mirror it wants to delete them.

I`m wondering if I can use some exclusion of some sort to achieve this.

Thanks

Hello,
I assume you have three Syncovery profiles.

The one that copies the main Folder1 should ignore Folder2 and Folder3 inside.

So, please add the following Exclusion Masks:
\Folder2;\Folder3

And set the radio button to: Ignore totally. That's very important, otherwise deletions would still occur.

Does this work for you?

I tried to do it firstly with \\destination\folder1\folder2;\\destination\folder1\folder3 but that didn`t worked.

But as soon as I tried you way it perfectly worked.

Thank you very much!
