Hi all, I'm new to rsync but I get the gist of what has to be done to create backups from a server to a client. My particular need though is to copy new/changed files and mysql database from one filesystem on a server to another filesystem on the same server. Basically I have 7 domains on a dedicated vps, all with exclusive ips. One domain is the master domain and the files and database need to be transferred to the other domains on a regular basis. Site mirroring on a single server. I was told rsync would handle this but so far I haven't been able to figure out how. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm already past deadline on this. Thanks much! Michael -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Rsync-on-a-single-server-tp28382765p28382765.html Sent from the Samba - rsync mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
Addendum: I seem to have been successful in copying files from one of the domains to the other using the following: rsync -auvn /path/to/source/directory /path/to/destination/directory I can only assume everything new/changed was copied as I now need the mysql database copied from one domain to the other. Is it possible to copy the mysql database using rsync on the /mysql/mydomain to /mysql/myotherdomain or do I have to do something different?
