rsync / Synology / @eaDir

The reason I’ve been figuring out rsync is to setup my backup strategy. Eventually this will partly be managed with scheduled tasks (ie cron jobs) running rsync. I wanted the SSH in and try this out, since I didn’t know some basic things like the mount points of the shares.

Mount points

My first issue was to find the paths to all my data. This turned out not to be a drama. Each of the volumes you create when the NAS is set up are just in the root directory. This includes any USB drives plugged in.
