    Yes, the placeholder and Dropbox's smart sync is exact the function we need! But the dropbox corp isn't releasing this function to plus user, otherwise I would purchase it immediately.

    Sorry for what I said, I am the user in China, you may have not heard of the GFW, just referring it as a F*CK wall between your computer and other computer outside your LAN.

    And another thing I am not satisfied about Syno is about its files synchronization mechanism, I posted some articles about asking why sometime my normal files are disappeared from their default location and moved to the archive folder, but Helen's answer didn't explain clearly enough. FYI, the files in Archive folders would be deleted after 30 days... I even wrote a short program to monitor the Archive folder's content to see what files are added today....

    So, really a waste of time choosing a good tool to use. Now I am using the old time tools, FreeFileSync... and portable Hard disk....and now, everything just working fine...

    Two years user of syno, and just left. Sigh....

    Yi.

  2. No official reply for 2 days... really a little disappointment. And just some time ago some unknown error just happened and two of my shared folders are missing and the folders names were changed to some random chars such like xT9J8o or some alike.

    The Syno said the folders are missing, so then I chose the correct folder on the local computer and found tons of the files are moved to Archive folder, what I can do now? I hope the sync can move them back in short time but the hope is almost gone. I set the archive ttl to 1 day so I need to move quick in case the Syno delete those normal files in Archive folder forever!

    @Helen

  3. I used Syno for over 1 yrs. And I am feeling confusion about exactly purpose of these folders.

    I know those long hash filename file is temporary files which are not yet finished receiving from others or my other peers. But what is the files in Archive folder? For example, I found some of the "full" files in the Archive folder, and I didn't delete any of those. 

    A long time ago, I experienced a hard time about my precise photos missing event, and I found them in Archive folder with 0 bytes, and I didn't noticed the size of those missing files, so I moved them back the "normal" position(out of the Archive folder), and finally, those 0 bytes are totally missing for ever.

    So my question is, if I didn't delete files in normal folder, and I found some of "full" files in Archive folder, what I can do?

    Is it safe to move the "full" files back to the normal position? or I just left them alone and wait the Syno to deal with them?

    Thanks in advance. @Helen

    Yi.

  4. according my personal experience, the deletion is temporary, I think you could find your files in .archive folder, even not, the sync would move those "deleted" files back to ur original location. I think sync would use .archive folder as temporary location for unknown operation.. or unknown purpose....

  5. Hi, @Helen I found the connection between client 2 and 3 are no stable, most of time the connection between them would be appear to be disconnection. So, I am thinking what method would help to increase the connectivity?

    GitHub - xtaci/kcptun: A Simple UDP Tunnel Based On KCP

    I found this tools which would help to convert TCP data into UDP data, would it help? Or use VPN to make my working client PC to dispose to the Internet?

    I don't think folders.default_known_host is reliable, after I filled that option with my home sync's Ip and port, the connectivity didn't improve.

    So please give some advice.

    I checked everything I could do, but the connectivity is not reliable still.

  6. Hi, I was kind of gotten the sync among 3 clients done, until recent several days something weird happened.

    First please allow me to describe my Sync environment:

    Client 1, a CENTOS server in cloud. 24*7 RUN, with name of "Sync on aliyun". Only synced very few files b/c the disk volume is very expensive, The point is use Sync on this server is to use its public IP to help improve the connectivity among different peers. At least I thought it could help....

    Client 2, a PC,  windows 10 in my home, got public ip under openwrt router and opened PNP. I used this PC to work after I got off the work place.

    Client 3, a PC, windows 10 at my work place. Only a computer in my work place network. Nearly a hundred computer used one public IP, no ability to change the router setting, No uPNP. I used Shadowsocks and local port is 127.0.0.1:1080. I checked the option of "use proxy server" and "use proxy server" in Resilio Sync in advanced preference. 24*7 RUN. 

    PS: i wanted to upload some pics, but found my MAX TOTAL SIZE: IS ONLY 0.03MB??  how could be possible a pic is only 30kb?

    So, no pics anyways.

    I liked to open my home pc and get synced from my OFFICE PC. But now this could not work any more.

    The problem is Client 2 and 3 could "see" client 1, but 2 & 3 could not 'SEE" each other, why this happened?

    I used Client 1's IP in client 2's & 3's advanced preference of "folders.default_known_host", I thought this would help different peer to find each other. But the truth is, which doesn't help that much.

    So, please, anything I would debug to change to improve my situation? Thanks in advance.

    Hard to say what the reason is without debug logs from at least both peers (including the mentioned one). Can you please collect logs and then contact support directly to figure it out?

    Thanks for the reply. I will report the debug log file and other essential stuff up the tech support. Anyway, the "updating" repeated even got no other peer. That's weird.

  8. I got a VPS in US, a alicloud in China mainland, a laptop with Centos 7 and PC with windows 10, the last three clients all located within the China mainland. At least in my opinion, the 4 of all clients above are running good. As for the full usage of band of the internet, I think the right line you chose is maybe the problem. I use CHINA UNICOM for 200MB for the PC and laptop in my home. Though the IP is dynamics, but with the help of DNS's API, I ran a python script in my OPENWRT router to bind a domain name to the PC and laptop,and allocate the port of 8888 and 8899 for their Sync ports. And the speed for uploading and downloading of Sync between the US and China are almost around 20MB and 200MB separately.

    So, in my thought the China Great Firewall is not blocking every port coming out or coming in the China mainland, not possible for large amount of corporations with goods export demand or the foreigners lived and working in China.

    @YI WANG Do I understand correctly that you need to sync 2 folders, with pretty much same existing content between your office and home computer?

    If yes, I'm missing the point of

    Why not just add the folder in office, make the link or key and add same folder at home and let Sync do its job?

    b/c the files are too many and maybe indexing and syncing would last for long time. And I already got the same files on another computer, why to sync for another time?

    And maybe i also miss ur point? what do you mean " add the folder in office"?

    Maybe i didn't make the clear point, what I meant is I got two same folders on 2 computer, can I tell Sync that they are the same, and let the Sync to double check that? Rather than let Sync copy all the files from A to B again and make duplicated files on B?

    Hi,

     

    I am facing 100% CPU issue usages as well. I will dm Helen my logs.

    Not sure what platform and CPU ur got Sync running on, my CPU usage lowered down after some time, I thought its either of the weaker CPU for RPi or the too many files to sync. Not a problem for my I5 and 8GB laptop.

    I know this is an old post but it's the top result in Google for "btsync indexing"

    Has there been any update here - my 2TB(ish) NAS was stuck indexing for weeks so last week I replaced the disks and reinstalled and it's been stuck on indexing for 4 days now! I wouldn't mind put my CPU's are pegged at 100% so the box is pretty much unuseable while this is going on.

    Hi busdriver, i kinda of think we should somehow try to reduce the numbers of files for syncing progress. One thing I like to do in my daily spare time is to check the files I got on my hard disk. For examples, I always liked to ZIP those old files (maybe thousands of them in one folder and subfolder) into one and named it with a pretty clear name. No matter the copy or sync process would accelerate a lot. 

    Not the best way to ur problem, just for a tip. Unless the CPU or HDD is fast enough, or this is the bug of programming, no really way to solve the indexing for a large amounts of files.
