Concurrent rsync profiles ...

apearse
in Acrosync for Windows
I am evaluating a number of rsync clients (cwRsync, rsync, Deltacopy, QtdSync), I am looking for maximum concurrency, running multiple rsync connections every 6 hours, several terabytes to sync every day so need to maximize network (iops can handle it) but I need a solution that will run several rsync clients in parellel, each syncing a different directory from the source (Windows) to the target (Linux). I noticed your solution queues them up but I need them all to run at the same time, every 6 hours. Is this possible with Acrosync?

    It is not possible to do it in the GUI mode.  But Acrosync can be run from the command line to sync one profile via the -p option, and it is possible to run multiple instances from the command line.

    That is great news. Quick question regarding does the sync mode - auto upload work if the UI is not up and running? Is there a NT service which supports auto upload on file changes? One last question / challenge I found is the SMTP setup. We use anonymous relay, so no username/password authentication is required but does Acrosync support this as I am not getting any emails with server, to and subject filled out.

    I'd like to make a buy recommendation but I will need answers to these before I can forward my recommendation.

    Thanks,

    Answered my first two questions, there is a command line I can run to instantiate an service with the --install option. I still need to solve the anonymous relay issue as I don't have a userid/password combo. How do I specify the "from"? Is this the username?

    I'll make some changes to the email notification interface to allow for anonymous login.

    I'm trying Acrosync and the only thing that's holding me back from buying it is the email notification requiring a user and password for the smtp.

    Any update on the email notification interface to allow anonymous login?

    Thanks

    I'll work on that next week.

    The new build 1.6.581 should allow anonymous login.
