This script checks to make sure there is enough free space on the source and destination to copy the files. If there is insufficient free space then the profile aborts. Note that some locations, e.g. FTP, cannot report free space and so this script will not work for such profiles.

Script Author: 2BrightSparks, with modifications to the V8 version by Michael Grabowski

Adds an extra column in the main window that shows the duration of the most-recent profile run.

You need to install this script and enable it on the Main Interface tab. You also need to enable it for each profile that you want the column to be used with (modify the profile and go to the Scripts tab).

Instruct SyncBackPro to only send an email if a profile run is aborted (if the run is simulated then it does not send the email).

Instruct SyncBackPro to completely ignore a folder, and it's contents, if it contains a file named .nobackup

Script Author: SyncBackGuy (Dave)

Instruct SyncBackPro to completely ignore the last modification date & time of a file. This option is not available if your profile is a Sync profile, however the IgnoreTimeStamp script allows users to ignore the last modification date & time of a file for Sync profiles as well, even though the option is greyed out in the profile. This script requires that the hashing option is turned on ("Use slower but more reliable method of file change detection").

This script may be used with SyncBackSE or SyncBackPro using the Run Before and Run After functions.

Script Details: Inserts Job Status into an SQL Database. This script will create JobLog entries in an SQL Table before SyncBackSE/Pro runs, then will update these entries when SyncBackSE/Pro's run is complete.

To setup:

1. Create the JobLogTable
2. Create the JobLogMaxView
3. Add the Start and End scripts with the appropriate parameters.

The start, end, and table creation scripts are included in the zip download.

SyncBack lets you label the source/left and destination/right. For example, you may be doing a backup to Amazon S3 and so want to call the destination S3. Or you may be copying legal documents from your local drive and want to call the source Legal Documents. Giving them a label makes it very clear in the user interface, logs, etc. what is being referred to in any messages, errors and prompts.

This very simple script adds two extra columns to the main window in SyncBackPro. Those columns show the labels you have given to the source/left and destination/right for all the profiles. Important: This first time you import this script you will need to exit SyncBackPro and start it again for the new columns to appear.

The script is not used if it is a Restore

This is a run-time script that ignores (skips) any files if the source file has not been modified yesterday (any time during the day before the profile is run). The script will not ignore such files if the profile is run as a Restore.

This is a run-time script that sets the read-only attribute on files copied to the destination. This may be useful in situations where you want to minimize the chance of other users, or programs, accidentally changing or deleting backup files. It is only for use with profiles where the destination is a normal filesystem and compression is not used.

Many people have multiple backup devices, and data they wish to be kept regularly backed up. The "Rotating Drive Letter" script supports a single profile that rotates which devices it uses as Destination each time it runs.

The profile should be set to run according to the frequency you design the script around, and the script tells the profile which device to use. The script creates a new custom Variable - that you can use in place of the drive letter - whose value is calculated differently depending when the profile runs /calls the script for a value (that is, asks which device to use). As delivered, it is designed to be run every 15 minutes, and to toggle between one of four values. It can be edited/adapted to deliver values based on the half-hour, the hour or even the day, etcetera.

Adds a new column labeled "Duration" which keeps track of the duration it took to scan before showing the Differences Window.

- Installing this script will add a "Duration" column (initially added on the extreme right of the Main window interface). Note this will not show in the main interface.

- The script must be enabled on individual profiles in order for the Duration cell (for that profile) to be populated with the running time.

- The Duration value will only be updated AFTER you have performed a successful Scan & run of the profile. The results reflect the duration in seconds the time it took to perform the LAST scan period, so you can have an indication of roughly how long it will take for the next scan/run of the profile. Note however that this is not an estimate of what the next Scan duration would be, but rather, reflects only the last Scan duration.

Warning: This script requires SyncBackPro V10.2.59.0 or newer.

These scripts shows the free disk space on the source and/or destination drive when using SyncBackPro. Incompatible resources such as FTP display 'N/A'. There are two scripts: one for the source and one for the destination.

This is a run-time script that waits for a program to finish before it starts. This can be useful when you do not want to close a program, but instead want to wait for it to finish before running the profile. Note that you should edit the script and set the name of the program that your wish to wait for (see the comments in the script code). By default it waits for Notepad to finish.
