The scripts I use analyze the rsync log after it completes and then sftp's a summary to the root of the just completed rsync. If no summary is found or the summary is that it failed, the folder rotation for that set is skipped and that folder is re-used on the subsequent rsync. The key here is that the folder rotation script runs separately from the rsync script(s). For each entity I want

Hi, I am using --link-dest for my rotating backups. Noticing the "--detect-renamed-lax" patch to rsync 3.0.0. I was hoping to make use of the --detect-moved. Unfortunately, "--detect-moved" does not seem to recognize the --linkdest option. A moved file is getting transferred again and a new file is created at the receiving end instead of linking to the moved file. Am I doing something wrong or is --link-dest simply not supported by --detect-moved? Here is the command I am using: /usr/bin/rsync -aHxh --stats --numeri...

...in the --link-dest directory is ignored. The existing file will be overwritten with the new version regardless whether the new version allready exists in the --link-dest directory. Is there a way to mak rsync check for existing files in the --link-dest directory first? (something like a --check-linkdest-first option) regards norbert

Well, the title says it all.. I tried to research on this subject, but didn't find anything conclusive to me. Can somebody explain that error? If the file on destination isnt there, why not just copy it from source, why an error? I did a backup with rsync -aH --linkdest="/path/to/linkdir" /path/to/original /path/to/backup... basically rsyncing into an empty hierarchy. No errors here. Now, the errors come when i try to recover, after replacing the original harddrive with an older disk backup. The command is rsync -aH --delete /path/to/backup/ /path/to/o...

...or the destination size will multiply by a factor of 6 or so...

When/if the server's rsync processes die (for an unknown reason at this point), I'd love for the client to recognize this fact and jum...

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
