World-first fastest, intelligent and innovative Filecopier for data backup storage administrator and commercial entity
Details
https://www.1range1.com/vr.php
VRangeSync
is Unix/Linux certified system sync,clone,mover tool. It has become the
de-facto system sync,clone,mover tool used by leading providers who are
looking for increased security, stability and scalability.
============
Independent
============
VRangeSync
is an independent and standalone software as it include with it's own
toolpack. It do not require any additional software to be installed. It
will works even if remote machine do not have VRangeSync installed.
============
World-first
============
Vrangesync
is world-first file copier which offer the following features that none
of the traditional filecopier on the market have.
- Achieve the fastest copying/cloning result on the market.(1)(2)
- 'ncat' and 'ssh' for remote data transport. (8)
-
Deltacopy (Delta Diff Algorithm) offer for 'non-remote' and 'remote'
data transfer.(5) Traditional filecopier can work for 'remote' data
transfer only.
- 4 ways sync.(link) Traditional filecopier offer two ways sync only.(4)
- 'Intelligent move' Algorithm(3)
- In-depth detailed statistic report for administrator for profiling.(7)
With
the above features, your storage device's lifespan get extended and
live longer. The total time to complete data transfer is shorter.

VRangesync 4-ways Sync and 'remote-to-remote' sync introduction
VRangesync 4-ways Sync and 'remote-to-remote' sync introduction
Video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIHxXPWcTmE
Traditional filecopier offer 3-ways sync. No 'remote-to-remote' sync capability available.
3-ways sync:
1)Your current machine 'directory #A' to Your current machine 'directory #B'
2)Your machine to Remote machine
3)Remote Machine to Your current machine
4)No 'Remote Machine #A to Remote Machine #B' available
VRangesync is world-first file copier that offer 4-ways sync. Vrangesync offer 'remote-to-remote' sync capability.
4-ways sync:
1)Your current machine 'directory #A' to Your current machine 'directory #B'
2)Your machine to Remote machine
3)Remote Machine to Your current machine
4)Remote Machine #A to Remote Machine #B

1) Direct mirror from machine '1.2.3.4' to machine '5.6.7.8' from third party workcomputer.
2) zstd -T(parallel) offer fastest completion time
======================================================
ncat
------------------------------
#ncat, openssl aes-128-cbc

1) Direct mirror from machine '1.2.3.4' to machine '5.6.7.8' from third party workcomputer.
2) zstd -T(parallel) offer fastest completion time
3) ncat on zstd -T(parallel) is faster than ssh on zstd -T(parallel)
=====================================================================================
VRangesync '4-ways' sync and 'remote-to-remote' sync capability is an essential feature for storage guru or system administrator to manage a large list of machines from third party workcomputer.
VRangesync simplify entire operation and reduce additional work required.
Total amount of time saving will matter alot in real world scenario.
VRangesync can be your next datacenter management enterprise tool.

Howto - install VRangeSync backup and data file transfer to disk storage device intelligently
VRangeSync is a command-line utility which copy and move data from one location to another on a storage device. It is a data migration, cloner, file replication and synchronization software. Today, i am going to show you how to use Vrangesync to 'move' files within 'Destination machine' which skip the hassle of transfer the same file again. This reduce the need to write to storage device again. With Vrangesync, you can extend lifespan of your storage device/backup facility.
=====================================================
Download and install
$ wget "https://www.1range1.com/dl.php?f=vr.tar.xz" -O vr.tar.xz
$ tar xf vr.tar.xz
$ chmod -R 755 vr vrex bin
Verify the integrity of the file and make sure it matches with our site before using it.
$ md5sum vr.tar.xz
===========================================
First time install
Install the essential tools
./vr -new
Signup for a free license for your system with an valid email if this is your first time install.
./vr -nec "your@domain.com"
===========================================
Howto use the software
For example, copy a single file from '/path/to/src/vm.img' to '/backup/to/dir/'.
./vr -i "/path/to/src/vm.img" -o "/backup/to/dir/"
For example, mirror from '/path/to/src' to '/backup/to/dir'.
./vr -i "/path/to/src" -o "/backup/to/dir"
