disable checking for updates in the Options menu (Tools > Options). When checking for
updates, DirSync Pro will send ONLY the current program alphanumeric version indication
(for example '1.51' or '1.51b1') to the update server to verify if a newer version is released.

DirSync Pro Manual Page 4/56

2 What is DirSync Pro?
DirSync Pro is a small, but powerful utility for file and folder synchronization. DirSync Pro
can be used to synchronize the content of one or many folders recursively. Use DirSync
Pro to easily synchronize files from your desktop PC to your USB-stick (/Externa
HD/PDA/Notebook, ...). Use this USB-stick (/Externa HD/PDA/Notebook, ...) to
synchronize files to another desktop PC.
Using DirSync Pro you can make incremental backups. In this way you'll spare lots of time
because you don't have to copy all the files each time you want to update your backup;
only new/modified/larger files would be copied. DirSync Pro provides some preconfigured
modes (e.g. Mirror, Backup, Contribute, ) for common synchronization and backup tasks
and some custom modes in which the user could set up the synchronization behavior to
meet specific wishes. Prior to synchronization, DirSync Pro perfoms an analysis on files
and folders and detect any kind of changes to any file/directory in the source. If a file is for
example modified, removed, deleted, renamed in the source DirSync Pro synchronizes the
destination accordingly. DirSync Pro detects also changes to file meta data (e.g. DOS
attributes, POSIX file ownerships/group/permissions) and could preserve them to the
destination file/directories.
DirSync Pro has a user-friendly User Interface which helps you configure many options to
your needs. You can use DirSync Pro also through the command line which makes it very
flexible for running in batches.
DirSync Pro lets you define advanced filters based of filename patterns (textual and
regular expression based), file sizes, modification dates, file paths and file meta data to
include or exclude file/directories as desired.
DirSync Pro has a powerful schedule engine which lets you schedule synchronization
tasks on many different ways, minutely, hourly, daily, weekly and monthly. Advanced users
may use tons of options available in DirSync Pro to suit the synchronization behavior in
details. DirSync Pro has many logging facilities which let you create detailed logs even per
job.
DirSync Pro provides a real-time synchronization option which watches the source
directory continuously and synchronizes the changes into the destination directory if a
file/directory is changed.
Unlike many other synchronization software, DirSync Pro is Open Source; it is 100% free
of charge, 100% free of commercial text, 100% free of advertisements and 100% free of
spyware. You can use it as long as you like, without any limitations in time or funcationality.
You can freely distribute it according to GPL3.
DirSync Pro is programmed completely in platform independent Java so it can be run
under nearly every modern operating system including Windows, Linux and
Macintosh.

3 User Interface
Synchronize can be configured via a GUI. You can use the GUI to execute a
synchronization, or you can use the GUI to create a jobset file and run the synchronization
in console mode.

3.2.2.4 Right mouse click context menu

If you right mouse click an entry in the synchronization queue, a context menu appears in
which you always may:
1. Remove this entry from the synchronization queue (not from the file system). This
means that the corresponding file pair will not be synchronized.
2. Remove all of this mode from the synchronization queue, which means all the
entry of which the synchronization mode is the same as the selected entry, will be
removed from the synchronization queue (not from the file system) and so will not
be synchronized.
3. Remove all selected from the synchronization queue, which means all selected
(highlighted) entries will be removed from the synchronization queue (not from the
file system) and so will not be synchronized. In the synchronization queue you may
select multiple entries using the CTRL and/or SHIFT key in combination with left
mouse click.
Additionally, depending on which column you right click, some other options will appear.
If you right click on the name of a folder or a file, you may:
4. Open the file/directory in the system file explorer. If the file is associated with an
application, the file is then opened in the regarding application.
5. Open the parent folder of a file in the system file explorer.
If you right click on the name/date/size of a file/directory, youll get a submenu:
14. Add Exclude Filter with which you may quickly add a context-aware filter. The filter
dialog will then open automatically in which you may fine-tune the filter.
This context-aware filter holds various options based on the data of the selected
file/directory. If you right click the name of a file/directory, you may:
7. Add a Pattern filter based on the name of the file/directory. After the filter dialog has
appeared, you may fine-tune the pattern manually.

DirSync Pro Manual Page 13/56

 8. Add a Pattern based on the file Extension. Again, you may fine-tune the filter in the
filter dialog which opens automatically.
If you right click on the modification date of a file, the context-aware Add Exclude Filter
lets you:
9. Add a date filter for files having earlier (<) modification date than the selected file
size.
10. Add a date filter for files having exactly same (=) modification date as the selected
file size.
11. Add a date filter for files having later (>) modification date than the selected file size.
If you right click on the file size of a file, the context-aware Add Exclude Filter lets you:
12. Add a file size filter for files having smaller (<) size than the selected file size.
13. Add a file size filter for files having exactly same (=) size as the selected file size.
14. Add a file size filter for files having larger (>) size than the selected file size.
If you right click on the synchronization mode, youll get two submenus:
15. Change to: which lets you change the mode of the selected synchronization item to
another mode.
16. Change all of this mode to: which lets you change the mode of all the
synchronization items with the same mode to another mode.
17. Change all selected to: which lets you change the mode of all the selected items
to another mode.
Depending on the context, you may change the mode to:
18. Forced Copy File/Dir A
19. Forced Copy File/Dir B
20. File/Dir B is Redundant
21. File/Dir A is Redundant

3.3 Job options
3.3.1 Basic options

1. The Basics tab: shows basic configuration of the job.

2. The Label of this job. The label is the name of the job. It is also used when to
create the default log filename for this job.
3. The path to Dir A for this job. Here you specify the directory with the original files,
also known as the source directory. You can specify here the following (case
sensitive) wildcards:
<username> for the name of the current user, and
<userhome> for the home directory of the current user.
You may drag a directory into this field which causes its absolute path to be
copied into this field.
4. Browse for Dir A directory. Important Note: The Java Run-time Environment (JRE)
which ships in recent Mac OSX's (like Lion) limits unfortunately the users access
to other files/folders other than his/her personal files/folders. This limitation affects
all Java applications (including DirSync Pro) which means no Java application can
go beyond your personal files. We have no idea why Apple enforces this limitation
to JRE for Mac users. The only way to eliminate this limitation is to install and use
the original JRE from Sun/Oracle.
5. The path to Dir B for this job. Here you specify the directory which will be
synchronized according to Dir A. This directory is also known as the destination
directory. You can specify here the following (case sensitive) wildcards:
<date> for the current date, and
<DD> for the current day,

DirSync Pro Manual Page 17/56

 <MM> for the current month,
<YYYY> for the current year.
<time> for the current time, and
<hh> for the current hour,
<mm> for the current minute,
<ss> for the current second.
<username> for the name of the current user, and
<userhome> for the home directory of the current user.
You may drag a directory into this field which causes its absolute path to be
copied into this field.
6. Browse for Dir B directory.
7. Swap Dir A and Dir B.
8. Includes subfolders in this synchronization. Here you can decide whether you
want to synchronize the content of the source directory including subfolders or
not.
9. Synchronization Mode pull down. This pull down allows you to select pre-defined
synchronization configurations or to define your own custom configuration. The
options are:
Mirror A -> B (incremental): This is a mono-directional (one way)
preconfigured synchronization which copies all the new and modified
files/directories from DirA to DirB. A file/directory in DirB which does not
correspond to a file/directory in DirA is marked as redundant and will be
deleted. DirB is exactly the same as DirA after the synchronization.
Mirror B -> A (incremental): Same as 'Mirror A -> B (incremental)' with DirA
and DirB swapped.
Synchronize A <-> B (incremental): This is a bi-directional (two way)
preconfigured synchronization which copies all the new and modified
files/directories from DirA to DirB and from DirB to DirA. All redundant files in
DirA/DirB (according to each other) will be deleted after the synchronization.
DirA and DirB will be exactly the same after the synchronization. If you select
this mode, you may also define the conflict resolution mode in the conflict
resolution tab.
Synchronize A <-> B (custom): Same as Synchronize A <-> B
(incremental) except some tabs get enabled in which you may set up your
own options to define the synchronization behavior as you may wish.
Backup A -> B (full): This is a full copy preconfigured synchronization which
will copy all files/directories one-by-one from DirA to DirB. This mode is
useful when you want to make a complete back up of DirA.
Restore B -> A (full): This is a full copy preconfigured synchronization which
will copy all files/directories one-by-one from DirB to DirA. This mode is
useful when you want to restore a backup to DirA.
Contribute A -> B (incremental): This is a mono-directional (one way)
preconfigured synchronization which copies all the new files/directories from
DirA to DirB. No file is deleted from DirB in this mode.
Contribute B -> A (incremental): Same as 'Contribyte A -> B (incremental)'.
with DirA and DirB swapped.
Synchronize A -> B (custom): This is a mono-directional (one way) custom
synchronization from DirA to DirB. If you select this mode, some tabs get

DirSync Pro Manual Page 18/56

 enabled in which you may set up your own options to define the
synchronization behavior as you may wish.
Synchronize A -> B (custom): Same as 'Synchronize A -> B (custom)' with
DirA and DirB swapped.
Context Information about this tab.
10. OK button to save all the settings to the job.
11. Cancel button to ignore all changes.
12. Context Information about this tab.

Important note: Some tabs get only available only in a custom synchronization mode.

DirSync Pro Manual Page 19/56

 3.3.2 Compare options
1. The Compare tab in which compare options are set.

2. Compare file sizes and modification dates. With this option, the file gets copied:
1. when the file in Dir A is modified later than the file in Dir B (in case of
New/Modified copy options), or:
2. when the file is Dir A is larger than the file in Dir B (in case of Larger copy
option).
3. Compare file sizes, modification dates and meta data (attributes, permissions,
ownerships): With this option, the conditions from the previous option apply, plus
that the file meta data is taken into account. The file will get copied if the
modification data is changed (New/Modified copy option), file size is larger (Larger
copy option) or attributes/POSIX permissions/POSIX ownerships are changed.
4. Compare file contents: with this option, the file contents will be compared byte by
byte if the file sizes are the same. If file sizes differ, a sync conflict will occur.
Please note that comparing file contents is a very time consuming task.
5. Context Information about this tab.

DirSync Pro Manual Page 20/56

3.3.3 Copy options
1. The Copy tab in which copy options are set.

2. Copies All files and directories. If a file already exists in the destination directory it
will always be overwritten with that one from the source directory. If you specify this
option, all other copy options will be ignored.
3. Copies only New (not existing in destination directory) files and directories. Files
that exist in the source directory but not in the destination directory will be copied to
the destination directory.
4. Copies only Larger files and directories. If there already is a file with the same
name in the destination directory, it will only be overwritten with the file from the
source directory if its size is smaller than the size of the original file in the source
directory.
5. Copies only Modified files and directories. If there already is a file with the same
name in the destination directory, it will only be overwritten with the file from the
source directory if its modified-date is older than the modified-date of the original file
in the source directory.
6. Copies only Larger AND Modified files and directories. If there already is a file with
the same name in the destination directory, it will only be overwritten with the file
from the source directory if its size is smaller and its modified-date is older than the
size and date of the original file in the source directory. If you specify the option
'Copy larger' or 'Copy modified', this option will be ignored (you already copied this
files).
7. Context Information about this tab.

3.3.4 Conflict Resolution options
3.3.4.1 Mono-directional sync conflict resolution

1. The Conflict Resolution tab: shows options when conflicts happens while using a
mono-directional or bi-directional synchronization. You may set these options only if
the Sync Mode is set to bi-directional or a custom mode.
2. Mono-directional conflict resolution tab.
1. Mono-directional sync conflict resolution through Overwriting the file in
destination with the file from the source: when synchronizing from mono-
directional in a custom mode, if the file in destination is modified later (file is newer),
the file from the source is copied over the file in destination; the file in destination
will be overwritten.
2. No Mono-directional sync conflict resolution Do nothing. Just warn me: when
synchronizing from mono-directional in a custom mode, if the file in destination is
modified later (file is newer), nothing will be copied. Instead the user gets a warning
and could fix the conflict manually.
3. No Mono-directional sync conflict resolution Do nothing. Just skip silently: when
synchronizing from mono-directional in a custom mode, if the file in destination is
modified later (file is newer), the file will be skipped silently.

DirSync Pro Manual Page 22/56

3.3.4.2 Bi-directional sync conflict resolution

1. The Conflict Resolution tab: shows options when conflicts happens while using a
mono-directional or bi-directional synchronization. You may set these options only if
the Sync Mode is set to bi-directional or a custom mode.
2. Bi-directional conflict resolution tab.
3. Bidirectional sync conflict resolution through Copying the latest modified file to
both directories: when synchronizing bidirectionally, if two files are modified in
both directories individually, the latest modified file will be copied to both directories.
4. Bidirectional sync conflict resolution through copying the largest file to both
directories: when synchronizing bidirectionally, if two files are modified in both
directories individually, the largest file will be copied to both directories.
5. Bidirectional sync conflict resolution through renaming copying both files to both
directories: when synchronizing bidirectionally, if two files are modified in both
directories individually, they are postfixed (renamed with added extensions .DirA
and .DirB) and they both will be copied to both directories.
6. No Bidirectional sync conflict resolution Do nothing. Just warn me: when
synchronizing bidirectionally, if two files are modified in both directories individually,
none of the files are copied. Instead the user gets a warning and could fix the
conflict manually.
7. No Bi-directional sync conflict resolution Do nothing. Just skip silently: when
synchronizing bidirectionally, if two files are modified in both directories individually,
the files will be skipped silently.
8. Context Information about this tab.

3.3.10 Advanced options

1. The Advanced tab to define advanced options.

2. Timestamp granularity is the tolerance in seconds when when comaring the
modification time of files/folders. Normally the granularity should be zero but in
some cases the file system fails to set the exact modification time, e.g. when using
a network drive or copying files cross platforms. Two files with modification dates
difference less than the granularity will be treated as 'not modified'.
3. Ignore daylight saving granularity could be useful when synchronizing between
FAT and other file systems. This option makes that two files with modification time
difference exactly 1 hour are treated as equal.
4. Preserve timestamps of the directories makes that the timestamps of the
directories in destination get identical to that of the directories in the source. This
option maybe useful for MS Windows/DOS users.
5. Write timestamps back to source files causes to write the time stamps of the
copied files back to the source files. Caution: use this if you really need to.
6. Real-time synchronization option could be used to watch a directory automatically
and continuously. If this option is set, DirSync Pro starts synchronizing after the
preset number of seconds is passed since the last change is detected.
7. This is the number of seconds to wait before the next round of real-time
synchronization is automatically started.
8. Synchronization on start causes an initial synchronization prior to monitoring the
real-time changes.
9. Verify the synchronized files causes that after a file has been copied checksums
of the source and destination file are calculated and compared. If the checksums
don't match an "Verify error" will be reported. This option could be useful if the
destination media are not completely trusted.
10. Skip symbolic links causes that symbolic links are ignored while copying. Only

DirSync Pro Manual Page 45/56

 applies if the source file system uses symbolic links (UNIX, Linux, Mac OSX).
11. Copy symbolic links causes that symbolic links are verbatim copied. This will
create symbolic links in the destination folder (UNIX, Linux, Mac OSX).
12. Preserve DOS attributes causes that the DOS file attributes of the files in
destination get identical to that of the files in the source. This option maybe useful
for MS Windows/DOS users and could only be set under these systems.
13. Preserve file permissions causes that the Posix permissions of the
files/directories in destination get identical to that of the files/directories in the
source. This option maybe useful for Posix users and could only be set under these
systems.
14. Preserve file ownership causes that the Posix ownerships of the files/directories in
destination get identical to that of the files/directories in the source. This option
maybe useful for Posix users and could only be set under these systems.
15. Attempt to override read-only attribute in destination when copying/deleting
causes the copy/deletion process to ignore the read-only (MS-DOS) flag in the
destination.
16. Context Information about this tab.

Understanding timestamp related problems

Some file systems do not store timestamps accurately (e.g. FAT) and it is possible that
problems with the option "Modified" arise (e.g. FAT always forces the time stamp down to
even seconds; if you copy a file with a source timestamp of "12:05:01" to FAT it will be
stored with a destination timestamp of "12:05:00". The next time you synchronize this file
with the "Copy modified" option it will be copied again because the source timestamp is
newer than the destination timestamp).

3.3.11 Job Actions

3.4 Generate command line tool

DirSync Pro Manual Page 47/56

Using this tool you may let DirSync Pro create the command line for you. The command
line could be used to start DirSync Pro directly from the command line. You could also
write the command line to a batch file to start a specific synchronization directly.
This tool is smart enough to check the type of the operating system (MS Windows vs.
Linux-like systems and uses the corresponding option delimiter (/ or -), file separator
character (\ or /) and file and path conventions.
1. This option adds a /sync (Or -sync for Linux-like systems) options to the
command line causes DirSync Pro to start synchronizing right away.
2. This option adds a /analyze (Or -analyze for UNIX-like systems) options to the
command line which causes DirSync Pro to start analyzing right away.
3. This option adds /schedule (Or -schedule for UNIX-like systems) options to
the command line which causes DirSync Pro to start the schedule engine as soon
as the GUI is started.
4. This option adds a /nogui (Or -nogui for UNIX-like systems) options to the
command line which causes DirSync Pro to start no graphical user interface.
5. This option adds a /quit (Or -quit for UNIX-like systems) options to the
command line which causes DirSync Pro to quit right after the synchronization.
6. This option adds a /iconify (Or -iconify for UNIX-like systems) options to the
command line which causes DirSync Pro to minimize to the system tray upon start-
up.

Start synchronization in command line mode:

dirsyncpro -nogui <jobset file>

On Windows:
dirsyncpro /nogui <jobset file>

3.7 Advanced features

3.7.1 Default directory for program settings
DirSync Pro saves its settings (dirsyncpro.properties) in the program folder by
default. If the program folder is not writable, DirSync Pro uses either the value of the
dirsyncpro.home system property, if defined, or XXX/.DirSyncPro in which XXX
stands for the user.home system property. You may define the dirsyncpro.home
system property when running DirSync Pro. To do so you should use something like:
java -Xmx512M -Ddirsyncpro.home="D:\\" -jar dirsyncpro.jar
Characters like '\' must be escaped.

3.7.2 Default directory for saving logs

DirSync Pro saves the logs (if enabled) by default in the folder where the program settings
are saved (see Default directory for program settings). You can change this default
directory by defining a new default directory through the options window in the GUI.

DirSync Pro Manual Page 54/56

3.7.3 Default directory for saving configurations
When you want to open a configuration or when you are about to save one, the file
choosing dialog starts in the directory where the program settings are saved (see Default
directory for program settings). You can change this default directory by defining a new
default directory through the options window in the GUI.

3.7.4 Log behavior

DirSync Pro lets you create a log file for the synchronization (configuration) and for each
individual Directory Profile. The log file for the synchronization is by default enabled. You
may disable this log file in the Default Settings tab, if you wish. The log file name is initially
set to the Synchronization name (this is the file name of your configuration). You may
change the log file name or path in the same tab.
If a Directory Profile is set to default settings, it'll log into the Synchronization log, if the log
is enabled. If it is not set to default, it's log file is disabled initially. You may enable the log
in the Directory Settings tab. The log file name is initially set to the Directory Profile name.
You may change the log file name or path in the same tab.

3.7.5 Schedule a synchronization

DirSync Pro has a powerful synchronization engine with lots of scheduling features. But if,
for whatever reason, these features aren't enough for your purpose, you may use existing
scheduling tools in your operating system (like cron in Linux and Windows Task
Scheduler in Microsoft Windows) to setup scheduled tasks to run a synchronization with
DirSync Pro. This is how you can do it:

1. Use DirSync Pro user interface to setup your synchronization.

2. Save your configuration file.
3. Use the command line generator tool to create your command line with with /quit
and /sync en eventually /nogui options. Save this command line to a batch file.
4. Use your system scheduler to run the created batch file as you like.

3.7.6 Auto start in MS Windows

You may want DirSync Pro to start automatically when you plug a USB drive under MS
Windows. To do so, create a file called autorun.inf with the following content:

[AutoRun]
ACTION=Backup
Open=java -jar dirsyncpro\dirsyncpro.jar JobsetFile.dsc

And in case you want it to quit right away after the synchronization:
[AutoRun]
ACTION=Backup
Open=java -jar dirsyncpro\dirsyncpro.jar JobsetFile.dsc /sync
/quit

In which the JobsetFile.dsc is your corresponding preconfigured and saved jobset

file. Please note that you may need to adjust the command in front of Open= to suit the
paths in your system. You should use the command line generator tool (under Tools menu)
to create the right command for you.

DirSync Pro Manual Page 55/56

3.7.7 Allocating more memory for DirSync Pro
If you run DirSync Pro through the command line, you may need to allocate more memory
for example when synchronizing massive number of files. If you want to allocate more
memory to DirSyncPro, use the following command to run DirSync Pro with 512MB (adjust
to own will):
java -Xmx512M -jar dirsyncpro.jar
You may choose a larger amount if you need to.
If you start DirSync Pro through the wrapper DirSyncPro.exe under MS Windows, the
wrapper DirSyncPro.exe itself already uses 512MB memory.
