So I am looking for a nice batch file using the robocopy function to make a copy of my Win7 client machines Backup and Restore folders to a NAS. Each day a new folder is created in a backup set parent folder, so in theory, all I want robocopy to do is copy that new folder every night rather then the entire directory every night.
As of now - I am using robocopy /MIR but it still copies everything across each time as OLDER even though the folders haven't changed.
Any ideas how this can be done?
Cheers
Use the /XO option.
/XO : eXclude Older - if the destination file exists and is the same date
or newer than the source - don’t bother to overwrite it.
Another option would be to use the /MaxAge:1 option.
/MAXAGE:n : MAXimum file AGE - exclude files older than n days/date.
