The Backup menu contains all of the status updates and configuration options for the nSync and rSync services. To access the backup feature controls, navigate to “System” -> “Backup” -> “Nsync”.

The nSync menu lists all of the nSync or rSync jobs that have been created. The table on this page displays the name of the synchronization task, the destination server, the share folder being backed up, the last time the synchronization was performed, whether or not the task was completed successfully, if the task has a schedule assigned and the current status of the backup job. You can also set a universal

bandwidth limit on all tasks using the “Bandwidth Setting” drop-down to limit the bandwidth used for synchronization tasks.
