Long time fan and user of rsync, with a question. First some background... What I'm trying to do is copy a 21GB backup file from my parent's house to my home to help them with their new computer. But the link is sporadic, thus a continous copy will not succeed. The session dies after 25mins - 2 hours. Thus, I've scripted the following script 'get_me.sh' #!/bin/sh mv .file.bkf.* ./file...

I fear you might be mis-interpreting what the balloon device actually does. It is a totally *manual* mechanism. You have booted the guest with 32GB set as maxmemory and currentmemory. So initially the guest will h...

Hello, Sometimes when creating hard links to the rsync destination directory, it seems like the new directory (created from the cp -al command) ends up with all the data. This causes a problem in the sense that if the rsync destination directory had 21GB, after the cp -al command, it ends up having only 8mb, then the rsync source directory determines that it now requires 21.98GB to update the destination directory. Here is an example of a test that I was doing. I have no idea why sometimes it works like it should, and sometimes it doesn't. My...
