File Sync copies files to all folders, instead of one.

[Kayesmj]

I'm testing the demo version of VV and I'm having a problem with the syncronization feature. I have a SnapAppliance Server 2200 portable NAS device, I have created 5 test folders on the Raid 1 NAS device named Test1, Test2, and so on.

I have the VV profile to compare a single folder that contains many subfolders on one of our servers to the Test1 Folder on the NAS device. Of course I then want it to copy all changed/new files between the two folders, but for some reason it is copying all the changed/new files to all of the folders on the Targeted NAS device. So I end up having all 5 Test folders full of the same data when I only designated the Target to be Test1 Folder. does anyone have any advice?

Thanks.

Hello

can you post the content of the profile file? When you save the profile it is saved to a file with extension .fsf which can be opened with NotePad. Please copy and paste in this post, so we can check the settings you are using

thanks!

Beats me, looking at the settings the sync should only involve
C:\Documents and Settings\kayesm\My Documents\ and X:\ (\\server\test1) not the other folders.

You can setup a log in the Viceversa profile settings. That may contain more info on what files are copied where after a run ....
