As Ben mentioned, ZFS snapshots is one possible approach. Another approach is to have a faster storage system. I have seen considerable speed improvements with rsync on similar data sets by say upgrading the storage sub system. -------------------------------------------------------------------- This email is protected by LBackup, an open source backup solution http://www.lbackup.org

I have a volume at 192.168.0.2 on my local network. I'd like to rsync the entire volume to a backup volume, skip all files already present on the backup volume (same name and the same or earlier timestamp), and include all flags, dates, etc. as applicable to Mac OS X 10.6.x. Can someone tell me the proper command to do this.

I am a developer on the LBackup project.

I am wondering if there is an option which is similar to --progress that will not display the file names. A percentage indicator would be fine. There is some related discussion at the following URL : http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2004-March/008998.html Any replies regarding ways to achieve this kind of output are welcomed. In addition, a reply like "sorry not supported yet"

The setup... Transport is via SSH. BoxA : Ubuntu 8.10 BoxB : Mac OS X 10.4.11 If I use rsync v2 to transfer data from BoxA to BoxB everything works fine. However, if I use rsync v3 to transfer the data, the following error is reported : rsync: mkstemp "/path/to/somefile/file.pm.JKQczN" failed: No such file or directory (2) If at all possible,

Is there a way to have rsync not treat files that have gone missing (e.g. Maildir messages that have been removed) as errors while indicating I/O errors and such?

Hello, Mac OS X 10.9 has the bad habit of considering a rename on an UDF FS as a file change; that is: > touch -t 201010101010 test > ls -l test -rw-r--r-- 1 gui staff 0 10 oct 2010 test > mv test fail > ls -l fail -rw-r--r-- 1 gui staff 0 29 nov 00:19 fail rsync.c (3.1.2), in archive mode, calls set_file_attrs *before* renaming .file.XXXXXX to file. So, in the

I'm using rsync 3.0.7 on Mac OS X 10.6, compiled according to Mike Bombich's instructions at http://www.bombich.com/rsync.html. Rsync repeatedly exits with a protocol data stream error when trying to copy some com.apple.FinderInfo extended attributes. While testing this issue, I found that rsync is not actually copying all extended attributes even when there is no error message. I'm

Hi, I have a small server at home. I like to put it 'online' and secure it as good as possible. The counterside of putting your personal backups on a server is that it might get hacked... and you don't want have to have your personal docs online... Do you think encryption is needed? How to use encryption with rsync? Thanks in advance, ~D

Just chiming in slightly off topic. As a first step if you are going to be backing up files to some media with a computer it would be a really good idea to ensure, that the hardware being used is not faulty. I am not saying that your hardware is faulty. However, it would be worth checking this somehow. Check the drive media for bad blocks, check that all the cables are working well. Ensure the

hello, does somebody know how to circumvent that "extra file access restriction feature" introduced in osx some time ago ? i already tried adding rsync binary to programms with "full disk access" privilege ( system-prefs -> security & privacy -> privacy -> full disk access)? , since running as root is not sufficient - but it does not work. i want to make sure
