similar to: AIX & Large File Support Problem (+ Solution)

Dear rsync-developers, on AIX5.1 with 32-bit kernel one can have large-file support. rsync in principle supports it correctly since the flag _LARGE_FILES is treated correctly in the /usr/include/*.h But there is one point missing, the mkstemp is not opening a large file. So syncing large files crash after 2GB. To avoid this one could either put a #ifdef _LARGE_FILES #undef HAVE_SECURE_MKSTEMP

I have discovered that rsync 2.5.6 uses the mkstemp() routine wich do not have a 64bits version into the AIX libc. A very simple workaround to the big files writing rsync pb. is to not use this routine that create files w/ mkstemp() by modifying the "syscall.c" source file at line 154 as following : #if defined(HAVE_SECURE_MKSTEMP) && defined(HAVE_FCHMOD) become #if

I want to rsync my home directory from interd1 to interp1. interd1 is the server, so I enter: rsync -vraz --delete ./ interp1::test rsync: building file list ... rsync: 6 files to consider. delete_one: unlinek .rhosts: Permission denied ./ .profile rsync: failed to open ".sh_history", continuing : Permission denied .sh_history a.a rsync.tst test mkstemp ..profile.KIa00D failed mkstemp

I've gotten several different errors with rsync. Maybe someone can help me. 1. rsync -azSH --stats --delete-after /export/home remote:/export/home/bkup delete_file: rmdir(home/greg/vnmrsys) : File exists rsync: symlink "home/greg/vnmrsys" -> "/export/home/vnmrsys": File exists unexpected tag 91 rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(298) 2.

Here's my command copied from a shell script:\ rsync --verbose --progress --stats --compress --rsh=/usr/bin/ssh --recursive --times --perms --links \ /home/* trt@xxxxxx.xxxxxxx.xxx:/remotebackups/ Here's some (a small part) of the output: jk/.recently-used 253 100% 0.00kB/s 0:00:00 rsync: recv_generator: mkdir "jk/.secpanel/.runfiles": Permission denied (2) stat

Hi, on AIX, mkstemp doesn't open a file with the O_LARGEFILE option, so you can't transfer files > 2GB to an AIX machine. Here is a fix: diff -c -r rsync-2.5.6.orig/syscall.c rsync-2.5.6/syscall.c *** rsync-2.5.6.orig/syscall.c Sun Jan 26 21:09:02 2003 --- rsync-2.5.6/syscall.c Wed May 14 13:55:15 2003 *************** *** 151,157 **** if (dry_run) return -1; if

Hi, HPUX and some AIX releases have a bug in their implementation of mkstemp(). They do not open the resulting file with O_LARGEFILE. Copying a >2GB file files fails therefore. IRIX, Linux seems to be o.k. There is an efix for AIX available but seems not to be deployed everywhere.

For all you folks out there using rsync on HP-UX, be warned that HP-UX is still broken with regard to large files. I opened a bug report with HP last year, as described here: http://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2004-July/010226.html I've been periodically checking on the status and today I was told that it's been officially filed as a "we won't fix this", citing that the

Sir, How to run the rsync server in the remote machine. I want to mirror the set of directories from one machine to another machine which are in the network. I used the following command : /usr/sbin/rsync -vv --delete --recursive --times --perms --update source directory destinationmachine:destination directory. I got the error: Permission denied. How to tackle this error ? thanks laks

Hello, we have the following problem when trying to ssh to our AIX server (it happens some times) ** *sshd[507944]: mkstemp(): Do not specify an existing file.* ** this is the version of ssh we have openssh.base.server 4.3.0.5301 COMMITTED Open Secure Shell Server the AIX version is 5.3 TL6 SP5 any ideas about the source of this problem

Why is do_mkstemp fchmod-ing the temporary file? I was not able to figure this out from the CVS logs or my searches in the mail archives. Currently, do_mkstemp does this (*): mkstemp temporary file (which leaves it with 0600) fchmod temporary file (final perm & 0700) And then later it gets renamed to the final name and permissions set to what they are supposed to be.

Hi, At Rs6000/AIX-4.3.3 the rsync-2.5.5 works ok when make local connections or I use -e rsh or -e ssh for remote connections, like: (OK) ./rsync -vacz . /user (OK) ./rsync -vacz -e rsh . user@10.4.2.199:user (OK) ./rsync -vacz -e ssh . user@10.4.2.199:user but with standart remote rsync without -e (NOK) ./rsync -vacz . user@10.4.2.199::user returns: rsync: failed to connect to 10.4.2.199:

hi, thanks for answers to my previous qns. have some more of them. hope it's ok to ask questions on the basics of CELP here. let me know if it's not. 1) synthesized filter stability after interpolation of LSFs I read from some resources that if LSF representation of LPCs is used for interpolation, stability of the synthesis filter is guaranteed. from another source, i read that the

Hello all I have two Linux boxes. The first one is samba servers for the Windows clients. The second one is backup storage. So every few hours rsnc synchronises the data directories on the second machine. They are Suse Linux 9 Linux max 2.6.11.4-21.7-smp #1 SMP Thu Jun 2 14:23:14 UTC 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux rsync version 2.6.3 protocol version 28 From time to time I get errors reported,

I'm trying to rync working between the UK (Sun box) and India (AIX box) and am having a real problems getting it up and running because every time I do a full transfer it hangs. The Sun box is the one holding the canonical source which we want to mirror. I've been shipped to the India office to get this working and have tried hundreds of things over the last week, I've also scoured

Rsync reports the status code of the remote command. So in some situations the status code is successful when the command fails. Rsync of a remote file to a local read-only directory fails, but exits with $status = 0. I'd like to get $status = 23. Is it possible? Local copy fails with status = 23 > mkdir /tmp/nowrite > chmod -w /tmp/nowrite > rsync /etc/group /tmp/nowrite || echo

Pardon me if this is already known -- Theo, at least, had never heard of a Unix doing this. mkstemp() under Linux claims to conform to BSD4.3, but BSDs (FreeBSD and OpenBSD, at least) seem to have a slightly different behavior. Under Linux, new files are created with mode 0666, while under BSDs new files are created with mode 0600. A user need only set his umask to 0 and he will be able to
