Hello everyone, Im kinda new to rsync and this list, so if there are any errors in my reqest, please tell me. I want to use rsync to make a backup of a diretory, and use the --backup option. My script looks like this: rsync -ab --suffix=-`date -Iminutes` --backup-dir=rsync_backup --delete --rsh=ssh directoryA directoryB If I run it once, then delete the file directoryA/test/test.file, the directorys directoryB/rsync_backup/test is created, and the file test.file-204-11-15.... is created. So everything works fine. When I delete or rename a directory (e.g. directoryA/t...

We're using rsync 2.6.3 to sync two DELL PowerEdge servers with both Redhat-EL4 and otherwise nearly identical hardware (2.8/3GHz, 1GB RAM each). The source machine has a SCSI-RAID1, the destination a SATA-RAID1 disk attached. There are 5 filesystems which are rsynced via ssh. On the smaller filesystems with ~200.000 files/7GB, rsync takes 1-3 minutes: lion:/atg/ ========= Tue Aug 22

I'm doing a recurring copy from one server to another from the crontab in this fashion: rsync -av -e ssh --delete 10.0.1.18:/dir1/ /dir1 --progress &> /var/log/rsync_backup.log However, rsync is creating the dir /dir1/dir1 on the machine running this job instead of updating the /dir1 folder. According to the rsync man page, this is the correct syntax: rsync -avz foo:src/bar/ /data/tmp A trailing slash on the source changes this behavior to avoid creating an...

...ons on the net muddy the issue. Tridge's PHD thesis mentions that people use rsync for replicating their databases to backup servers. i would have thought that that was OK if the DBM was shutdown during the backup...... But some people on the net like this: http://www.sanitarium.net/golug/rsync_backups.html Say: Why/When wouldn't you want to use rsync for backups? Databases: Rsync is a file level backup so it is not suitable for databases. If your primary data is databases then you should look somewhere else. If you have databases but they are not your primary data then there is a proced...

Hello, I faced a problem with rsync-ing like this server blue 3-HD's as Linux Sofware-RAID 0 (striping) - Webserver EXT3 server green 3-HD's as Linux Sofware-RAID 0 (striping) - Backupserver EXT3 During the rsync-2.4.6-13 process one of the HD's on blue died. Though rsync decided to remove the mirrored directories from green (the backup-server). This process resulted in a partial
