When a file of same length already exists at the destination then the command 'rsync --archive --size-only' (--archive is same as -rlptgoD) may change the modification time of the destination file even if no modification was made. Type the following commands in a terminal in order to reproduce the problem: $ mkdir source $ mkdir target $ echo "file one" > source/file $ echo "file two" > target/file $ sr...

Dear developers, In the rsync's manpage, there is a line describing the "archive mode" option: -a, --archive archive mode; equals -rlptgoD (no -H,-A,-X) Archive mode means that all data is backed up sensibly while the same doesn't apply for all metadata (hence the mentioned -H, -A and -X options). There is another similar "special file system option" as -H, -A and -X are, and that is the -S option for handling sparse fi...

...he files. If you are not 100% sure your file data matches you should not be using --size-only.

...of the [l]stat(2) struct or checksum when selecting which items to report or update in a hierarchy? For example, I want to run: rsync -Haxi --delete /hier1/ /hier2/ and have it NOT do anything if say ONLY the modtime differs. Leaving out or in the --times [-t] option from the expansion of -a to -rlptgoD obviously does not do this. That would be a pretty awesome feature to have :) Especially for where modtime is the only thing changed. Commonly caused by someone extracting a cp/tar/cpio/etc without preserving the modtime in particular. I would think the new ignore option bits would apply easily t...

...script I noticed that a files in bank/10-11 were not getting synced. Upon adding "-r" with "-av" the files got synced properly. I think when one supplies "-a", "-r" is implied. I reconfirmed this from man-page where it says "-a" is equal to "-rlptgoD". Am I missing anything from the man-page for this? Thanks, Shantanu --

hello all, i'm using rsync-2.5.4-2 on redhat 7.3 in order to rsync some data from a MS-WIN$ share, i use the following procedure -- first, i use the following to mount the SMB share : mount -t smbfs -o password=satish //satsco/satish /home/2 then, after successfully mounting the share, i am using the following to rsync the data into redhat linux : rsync -arlpogtb --whole-file

...file or directory done client: nothing to do: perhaps you need to specify some filenames or the --recursive option? It turns out I spelled the input filename wrong. The bug? Telling me to try --recursive when as everybody knows, -a, --archive archive mode, equivalent to -rlptgoD -r, --recursive recurse into directories So I already was trying --recursive!

Hi Rsync-ers I'm simply using rsync to do an exact copy of my root (and home) partition by using the -aHv options. When the copy is complete, I modify fstab so my root and home mount points are pointing to the newly copied partitions. When I boot (into the new partitions), init and all the services start okay; however, when I get to "mgetty" and it passes control to

Hi All, We are using rsync version 2.6.3 protocol version 28. Is there a way we could transfer files and force rsync not to look for the same user:group as host on the destination?

Hi I am making an extraordinary claim: rysnc seems to copy all my files, not just ones that have changed or new files. rsync version 2.6.0 protocol version 27 Debian 3.0 Woody I have tested this with one simple file, my example is shown below. Does anyone have any suggestions to rectify this? Regards Gareth example: I create a file called 'testfile' in /tmp/play containing the

rsync -aub foo/ bar/ will always overwrite a file in bar with a symbolic link of the same name in foo. And there is no backup written. Is this a bug, or is there a command-line option to change this behavior? In particular, I'd like to prevent the overwriting of regular files with symbolic links and send a warning message to the screen if it cannot be determined which is more recent.

Hello, I am trying to copy, on the same server, a set of files. I need to copy them every day with a cron job. This is working fine the only problem is that he always changes the owner and group to the root user. Is there a possibility that he uses the user of the remote files and not the root user ? rsync --archive --exclude ".htaccess" /home/virtual/site5/fst/var/www/ html/

Hello, how to correctly make full and fully working samba backup? I read articles and newsgroups seeing how many people failed because something was forgotten to be copied or saved and restored/merged. Usually password and user accounts does not work. What I found is most people copy: /etc/samba the smarter copy also: /home geeks knows they should also copy: /etc/passwd /etc/shadow /etc/groups
