Dear All I would like to use the command rsync to have a perfect copy of each one of five directories and their contents. How can I do that at once? I know that I can do that directory by directory... but it would not be the fastest way. Thanks in advance, Paul

Hi everyone, it would be nice if rsync could call an external command to delete files. Than one could call a secure deletion tool like "wipe", which overwrites files a few times before deleting them. Right now Im wiping personal data which I dont need anymore, but it doesnt help much since they can easily be recovered from my backup made with rsync. Bye, Mario -- Der GMX

Hello, I want to be 100% sure that rsync copies something from one location to another. However, I did not see an option which would make rsync retry an operation if it failed for whatever reason (network was down when rsync started, or network went down during rsync was copying something, connection timed out etc.). For example, wget has an option like --tries=number Set number of retries

..." first. then contact the server), but this would not be the best solution. So plese rsync admins, put timeout=<almost unlimited> into your /etc/rsyncd.conf. ftp:3 03:47:14 ~ # grep timeout /etc/rsyncd.conf timeout = 15000 ftp:3 03:47:16 ~ # Cheeers -e -- Eberhard Moenkeberg (emoenke@gwdg.de, em@kki.org)

Hello All, We have a very high utilization rsync server. We can handle large number of connections at a time, but would like to limit to one connection per client. we don't want multiple connections from the same client. Is that possible? Thanks Saqib http://enterprise20.squarespace.com

Is it possible to sleep 1 second after each file is rsynced? Ofcourse, I can put this in a for loop and do a sleep after each file is done, I was wondering if there was anything native in rsync for this type of operation. TIA

Hi Everyone, We want to use the rsync 3 for incremental file transfer of our File system from one box to another, however there are about a million files to be copied, so just wanted to know by any one of your's previous experience with rsync 3, will these many files get copied at first time and incrementally in the subsequent run of the crontab. Replies will be much appreciated. Thanks in

...rsync? which one? perhaps that helps debugging the > problem. ftp.gwdg.de has senn lots of rsync aborts with master.kde.org - I had the picture that probably master.kde.org got slashdotted since last friday by being a SUSE mirror... Yes, ftp.gwdg.de is still using the "old" rsync: emoenke@ftp:0 01:47:48 /mirr/bin > rsync --version rsync version 2.5.7 protocol version 26 and I guess I can't change that due to anasty bug of the new rsync version: If I have configured a "--backup-dir" and the new rsync version finds a second file which has to get deposited there...

...ecognized dead processes, but it seems impossible for me to share this aspect with all the other server maintainers... So, my question (indeed more, a wish): wouldn't it be possible to start bulding both databases in parallel, or shortly after each other?

Hi: I use rsync to transfer multiple files from several clients to a server in parallel. I am wondering how many concurrent connections the server should handle to maximize the throughput (number of bytes written to server). In an extreme case, if only one connection allowed, the disk IO speed of server will not be fully utilized. On the other hand, if the server allows too many connections, the

Hi, I have a bash script for rsync that should tranfer all my filer from one drive to the other. I would like to know how I can make the script sending me an email after the script is run and be able to know if it was a success or not and also if possible to include the log file. This is my script: !/bin/bash rsync -av --delete --log-file=/home/duffed/RSyncLog/$(date

Hi, I am trying to transfer a file that has spaces in its name. The rsync gives me below error. Am I doing anything wrong? #ls -l /tmp/test\ file -rw-rw-r-- 1 xxx xxx 0 Jul 5 02:23 /tmp//test file # /usr/local/bin/rsync --archive /u/masanip/ACH/test\\\ file /tmp/mydir/ rsync: link_stat "/tmp/test\ file" failed: No such file or directory (2) Number of files: 0 Number of

I am looking to do state-full resume of rsync transfers. My network environment is is an unreliable and slow satellite infrastructure, and the files I need to send are approaching 10 gigs in size. In this network environment often times links cannot be maintained for more than a few minutes at a time. In this environment, bandwidth is at a premium, which is why rsync was chosen as ideal for the

Would it be possible to make rsync capable to sync gziped source (at server) with non gziped detination file? PROBLEM: The rsyncd server provides a few *frequently* accessed, slow changing, *big* text files (DNS RBL zones). It seems that the source files are too big to stay in memory caches and rsync sessions cause to many hard disk I/O operations. Making rsynd capable to "ungzip"

dear rsync developers: I use rsync as a convenient synchronization tool. I know it was not made therefore, but it is very convenient. the only drawback I see is that the delete option is "harsh"---if I edit on machine A, and then forget that A is the updated machine, an rsync pull from machine B will delete my new files on A (if I use --delete). most of the time, this is what
