windows: robocopy sync job example

 a batch script, that you can use with robocopy:





set source_directory=C:\path\to\source\directory

set destination_directory=D:\path\to\destination\directory



set /P answer="Are you ready for the backup? (Y/N) "



if /I "%answer%"=="Y" (

	robocopy %source_directory% %destination_directory% /MIR /R:3 /W:10 /IF



	if %errorlevel% neq 0 (

		msg * "Robocopy sync failed! Please check the log file for details."

		exit /b %errorlevel%

	)

	pause

	msg * "Robocopy sync completed successfully!"

	

) else (

    msg * "Backup process cancelled."

)

another example, with an UNC target directory:

robocopy C:\source_folder \\servername\shared_folder /MIR /USER:username /PASSWORD:password



/IF option can be used, if you only want to copy if the destination directory exists!
