I have a script that runs nightly as a cronjob to backup my drive to a USB drive https://pastebin.com/yivqrGUC On the command line I use the --timeout option. Is this sufficient to ensure that if the external drive somehow becomes unmounted that rsync will gracefully fail without trying to write to the hard drive instead of the USB drive? rsync -vaWSHpl --timeout=15 --delete-excluded --filter

I'm using a javascript program to execute rsync 2.5.6 compiled with cygwin on Windows XP Pro machines. These backup the user's "My Documents" folder to a Linux server running rsync 2.5.6 in daemon mode when the user logs in to XP and certain conditions are met (e.g. user hasn't backed up for a few days, user on the network etc). This works great except every now and then

Hi all, I'm setting up a backup script for my Mac, and I'm wondering about the rsync ability of dealing with HFS+ filesystem (resource-fork and such...). I've searched the mailing list archive for this topic and I've found some thread regarding it, but it's not clear to me what is the actual situation. Is the HFS+ officially supported? Will it be in the near future?

Hello, anybody has a clue why this happens? The scenario: Each night I create LVM snapshot of my volume which contains some virtual disk images (VirtualBox VDIs). Then I rsync the content of one of the snapshot directories to a backup server. Each file size is between 1.3 GB and 6GB. I run the following commmand: sudo -u rsyncbackup rsync -avzP --exclude-from /home/rsyncbackup/excludefile -e

--timeout is about network connection timeouts. You aren't using the network so it doesn't apply at all. Even if you were networking an unmounted filesystem is an empty directory as far as rsync is concerned and rsync would treat it that way with no idea that you intended to have something mounted there. Now, I see at the top of your script you check for the existence of the target

Hi, This is my rsync command /usr/bin/rsync --compress \ --verbose \ --rsh=ssh \ --times \ --owner \ --group \ --ignore-times \ --links \ --perms \ --recursive \ --size-only \

hi all i'm playing with rsync to make a good incremental backup on Mac OS X and FreeBSD i use this with the --delete-excluded option to get a fresh copy with only modified files but today i ave a new thing: i would like to get a backup folder with all modified files on it, not the full backup, only modified files i'll tried -b --backup-dir but isn't working can any help me

I'm having an issue with the --suffix and -b flags - I've tried the following commands: rsync -avbr --backup-dir=/rsyncbackup rsynctest user@server.com::module rsync -avbr --backup-dir=/rsyncbackup --suffix="" rsynctest user@server.com::module and either way, I wind up with a tilde as a suffix on all the files moved into the backup directory at time of synchronization.

Hello, I have a quite unusual encoding problem (?). I call rsync with the following parameters: /usr/bin/rsync -a --delete --numeric-ids --delete-excluded \ --rsh="/usr/bin/ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -i \ /etc/rsnapshot_ssh_certs/mykey" \ --link-dest=/data/snapshots/hourly.1/folder/mail/ \ rsyncbackup at server:/var/backups/mail/. \

Hi Larry, Your tech details are way beyond my knowledge, but maybe python can do the job for you too? I use this python script (from the python cookbook) and crontab to keep my sheep in the dry: #!/usr/bin/env python #wraps up rsync to synchronize two directories # ! -- should contain check of disk space using rsync -n option for drytest ! from subprocess import call import sys import time

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
