Hello community,
Wondering if anyone can help me.
I am considering using Hazel sync actions to keep two external hard drives in sync.

These are connected to two separate Mac Minis on a network with static IPs and DNS names, plus they have share points with Server app.

I want both of these hard drives to be called "Repository" because they are meant to be redundant to each other in case one of the Mac Mini fails in any way.

I don't know if Hazel should be the tool for the job of syncing these, wondering if anyone has any experience or other suggestions.

Thank you,
Rod

It might be better to use something designed especially for this. Maybe something like Carbon Copy Cloner?

CCC is what I am using today.. But as a one way duplicate every hour.
Ideally I would work on either hard drive and have things sync between them

Doing a two-way sync is something that Hazel isn't meant for. I'd hunt around for something made for that as there are specific issues with it that dedicated software will be able to handle better.

Try ChronoSync.

You have probably sorted this out already, I'm more leaving a note for somebody else that might want to do something similar.
