Hi rsync team, I thought that rsync would try to overlap computing and IO on both machines. I'm rsyncing a large tree (18G) and am keeping an eye on that. Suddenly my side completely stopped. No IO visible, no CPU time spent. The otherside was doing 100% CPU. Then the other side started to do disk IO. Then suddenly the activities moved over to my side, and I saw things moving again in the

I am doing some benchmarking of rsync. I am using the --bwlimit= option to throttle down rsync to predict its operation over slow communications links. I am using rsync 2.6.2 from the release site without any patches. I downloaded the release rather than pull from the CVS tree. I have 2 servers "wilber" (the remote archive) and "judy" (the local archive) connected with a gig

Hello! I cant get the bwlimit option working right. If i set this option over 400 kbyte per sec i still only get 400kbyte per sec, whether wich value i set. I try this option with a 100MB big file. I use a debian stable System with rsync version 2.5.6cvs protocol version 26. Can someone tell me how i can this get working? thx Rene dpkg -l "rsync*" ii rsync 2.5.5-0.1 fast remote

Hi A friend of mine managed to corrupt his block group descriptor table. When starting e2fsck, it says that it is corrupt and will use the backup. Great! However, will e2fsck be able to fix this, or will I have to do this manually? The FSCK is still running, expected to finish "pass 1" in about four hours.

Greetings, I have written a patch for rsync-2.6.1pre-2 which adds a --time-limit=T option. When this option is used rsync will stop after T minutes and exit. I think this option is useful when rsyncing a large amount of data during the night (non-busy hours), and then stopping when it is time for people to start using the network, during the day (busy hours). If this patch is accepted it may

Hi everyone, I'm trying to rsync a large directory. After pondering on the list-of-files, it's now more or less doing nothing. It's running for over 4 hours now, not doing anything except eating CPUtime on the destination for over half an hour. I don't know what it was doing before that. The stdout of the rsync reported: 4675350 files to consider (which is about right)

Greetings, Upon a suggestion to improve the --timelimit patch, I have also added a --stopat option. You can get the patch from this URL and/or cut/paste it from below. http://www.terry.uga.edu/~jft/rsync-timelimit-stopat.patch.gz Here are the details... --timelimit=T This option allows you to specify the maximum number of minutes rsync will run for. This time starts when

Hi list, I couldn't find anything related to this, on mailing lists or even bugzilla, so here it is. A problem with this combination exists in the new 2.6.3 where the bwlimit code got rewritten and is not present at <= 2.6.2. The problem is that on io.c:882 bwlimit_writemax is also used to control the bandwidth, but it is not initialized for the daemon mode. At options.c:772 you can see

[I'm not subscribed, please CC me on replies] Some time after 2.6.0 the --bwlimit code was enhanced, but the code now doesn't work anymore when you set the bandwidth limit for the daemon and generates error log entries like: 2005/01/13 08:17:03 [29636] rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 12 \ bytes: phase "unknown" [receiver]: Success (0) 2005/01/13 08:17:03 [29636]

Hello Everyone: I've been trying to get rsync using --bwlimit using openssh for transport without success. Here's what I get: % rsync --bwlimit=20 from.com:/dir/file.txt /dest user@from.com's password: **** rsync: unrecognized option `--bwlimit=20' unexpected EOF in read_timeout I tried specifying ssh transport using both the -e option and by setting the RSYNC_RSH

Does "bwlimit" option really work on rsync locally? We have one type of harddisk and want to slow down rsync I/O on disk because I don't want the disk head gets too hot. While I'm trying to use --bwlimit option, it looks the rsync speed was slowed down, but iostat is not improved at all. In both case the block written speed is increased by the same amount. How could I really

Wayne replied to my original note which said that in a special situation that I was using to probe rsync to build a behavioral model that bwlimit= resulted in bimodal behavior around a 4000 kbyte/sec value. He responded with a patch that I have tested in a limited way. I have a push scenario from a local site to a remote site. I use a file that is 6.3 Megabyte in size whose checksums (when

Hi, I have two issues with the --bwlimit parameter to rsync which are not mentioned in the FAQ (please correct me if I am wrong): 1. When both an rsync client and an rsync daemon specify the --bwlimit parameter, the client's value overrides the server's value. This could be used in a DOS attack if the client uses a larger value than the server intended. The documentation also is

My impression when running with --bwlimit in combination with compression -z is that the speed to the filesystem is limited to the value given in --bwlimit. This must be contrary to the intention with --bwlimit. David
