Copying conundrum
Posted: Wed Jan 19, 2022 5:48 pm
My disk imaging scheme involves creating full disk images followed by some number of differential images. The images are all saved on a HDD, but I'd like to copy the full images (and not the smaller differential images) to a spare SSD that I have.
To be clear, the SSD would only be used as a secondary backup of the image files. The SSD is only large enough to contain one full image at a time.
So for example, my full list of images on the primary backup HDD might be:
2022-01-05@2002--------Full.#0
2022-01-05@2002--------Full.#_#
2022-01-05@2002--------Full.TBI
2022-01-09@1133.#0
2022-01-09@1133.#_#
2022-01-09@1133.TBI
2022-01-12@0840--------Full.#0
2022-01-12@0840--------Full.#_#
2022-01-12@0840--------Full.TBI
2022-01-16@1113.#0
2022-01-16@1113.#_#
2022-01-16@1113.TBI
2022-01-19@1002.#0
2022-01-19@1002.#_#
2022-01-19@1002.TBI
I'm interested in storing only the latest "20*---Full.*" files on the SSD in question.
Is there a way to configure a Syncovery profile so that it always deletes the old/existing "20*---Full.*" files on the SSD, and then copies the latest ones of the same mask?
