single rsync of large directory structure versus several smaller rsync's
...the exact same backup either way. However I feel
safest doing it as multiple rsyncs (one for each user). I am doing this
because I want to avoid a case in which some fatal error on a particular dir
kills off the whole rsync. For example, given:
/home/adoe
/home/jdoe
/home/zdoe
If I do:
rsync -vaze ssh /home/
I am afraid that if /home/adoe had a fatel error (one that kills rsync) all
dirs past it would not be backed up and given an over-worked sysadmin
(never!) we might miss the error until the day we need the backups.
If I do a seperate:
rsync -vaze ssh /home/adoe
rsync -vaze ssh /home/...
