...some critical data it is something of concern; that is what prompted this question. I don't need this high level of fidelity of most data, just a small subset. The use case is: * Create raw data * Move to backup location very reliably. * Delete original data set. Thanks again.

Hi I am using "rsync" to send files from a source machine to a remote machine as one typically does. I would like to clarify that the "-c" option will cause the checksum on the receiving end to be created by reading the already written file and NOT the data stream on the receiving end. This would help in catching disk I/O errors if the checksum is done on the file on disk.

...-c option causes rsync to checksum EVERY file on both ends BEFORE rsync does anything else. It checksums files that are on only 1 end. It checksums files that are different sizes. It will not catch a hardware problem preventing rsync from writing a file correctly.
