|
|
At the moment I have two key profiles I run regularly. One synchronises key data between my main pc and a USB stick I carry to and from work (so depends on always getting the same drive letter assigned each time I plug the stick in!) and the second then mirrors that key data from my pc to my NAS RAID 1 server. Both profiles seem to run in two phases. One set of actions runs (possibly deleting unwanted files?) and then I have to click the green Close button to kick off the second phase. I want to use VVEngine to run the two profiles automatically. My questions are:
Can I run the two profiles sequentially in a specific order?
How do I prevent VVEngine stopping after the first step of each profile (or indeed after any other reported error)?
Is there any way I can ensure VVEngine runs the first profile even if, by chance, the USB gets assigned a different drive letter (I know I can make the VVEngine process start conditional on the USB key being present)?
Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the tip about VVEngine.
Understand that I can use Disk Management to alter drive letters. Unfortunately, I want VVEngine to run reliably and consistently immediately the key is inserted (I think I can set VVEngine to do that) and so I don't really have the luxury of checking whether the key has been assigned the expected drive letter and, if not, going in and changing the drive letter. Unfortunately, also as I am syncing, the use of a <label:......> approach is not on either so I guess I'm stuck.

Hi, I think you should be able to use Disk Management to assign always the same letter to that USB drive and then have VVEngine running as soon as that drive letter is detected. _________________ --
