Hi all, We did an rsync of a filesystem using 'rsync -a' to another filesystem (from gpfs snapshot to cephfs to be precise). I was now checking this sync and saw some strange results: A lot of the directories have the timestamp of the sync, and not the original one. But there are also a lot directories which have correct timestamps. All files have the right timestamp, so it is only an issue with directories. I checked another fs sync (but also gpfs to ceph) , and I've seen the same thing there. If I look to the access times, the 'wrong' dirs have an access time before the 'good' ones..

Or how I could debug this? Thanks in advance! Kenneth
