Hello,

I'd like to know if it is somehow possible to sync one or preferrably more local datastores to another local datastore, namely on an external (USB) disk. I managed to create a ZFS filesystem on the disk and create a datastore on it, but it seems I can only sync remote datastores. Any way to work around this?

Thanks,
Andreas
 
I hope I understand the question right - but you can create a sync-job within one host - just add a 'remote' with hostname 127.0.0.1 (or localhost)
and then setup the sync job accordingly

I hope this helps!
