--link-dest doesn't work
...only get the changed files.
Otherwise just hard link to yesterdays file. So I'm trying
--link-dest. here is the script (backup.sh) I'm trying to use....
#!/bin/bash
if [ -z "$1" ]; then
echo usage: $0 rsync_module
exit
fi
BACKUP_DIR=/home/user/backups/sites/$1
NEW_BACKUP=$BACKUP_DIR/`date +%m-%d-%Y`
OLD_BACKUP=$BACKUP_DIR/`date -d "-1 day" +%m-%d-%Y`
rsync -a -e ssh --delete --link-dest=$OLD_BACKUP --exclude access_log
--exclude error_log root@treedesign.com::$1 $NEW_BACKUP
... This script runs fine without any errors, but look at the i-node
numbers....
