QNAP: exclude files and directories from rsync

Tue, 14 Mar 2023 17:06:00 +0100

I’m moving files from one QNAP system to another, and I’m using rsync for this. It’s preinstalled on a QNAP system. So far, so good.

To sync entire shared volumes, I want to exclude the @Recently-Snapshot and @Recycle entries - I don’t want to sync the trash bin and I also don’t want to sync entire snapshots.

The usual approach when using rsync is to just use the --exclude option.
