New plugin available: USB Backup

The new plugin ‘USB Backup’ can be used to automatically synchronise a shared folder to an external USB storage device when the USB stick is plugged in.

To configure a backup job, simply plugin the USB storage device you want to use and press the ‘Add’ button. Then select this USB device in the ‘Volume’ combobox and configure the other job options. In the jobs grid panel you can select a job and run it manually, otherwise it will be started when you plug the USB device. A beep occurs when the synchronisation job is started and when it has been finished, additionally an email is send if configured. The sync protocol can be viewed in the ‘Rsync – Jobs’ system logs.
