Question about v0.9

[socistep]

Hi




Reading the notes on v0.9 and these 2 features



FLAC to mp3 mirroring through the web GUI.
Backup to USB drive through the web GUI



I currently have similar jobs scheduled on cronjob but this potentially removes the need for these.




Question is - can these jobs be scheduled from the webGUI or is it to only run them ad-hoc ?




Thanks


Ian

No I may add cron scheduling as a features in the future. For now you have to start the mirroring manually.

Hi,




I added a file, BackupStorage, with this script in to my cron.daily folder to run the USB backup automatically. It should also work with the StartMirror command, although I haven't tried it.




#!/bin/sh


/opt/vortexbox/doaction.sh BackupStorage

Nice, I designed doaction to be called from a script. I think you are the first person to use it that way.
