HI, I'm trying to have files to be included during rsync. I have the filesystem /stor/circuit_design/, with the following subdirectories as its contents: clock_speed fub_layout test_simulations pattern_flow I would only like to rsync the following 2 subdirectories to the destination machine: clock_speed fub_layout and they're contained in the file called files_included: # cat

HI, I'm trying to exclude some files & directories from a filesystem which I would like to copy to a different site. I did: # rsync -avz --exclude-file=/fs21/tmp/perl_scripts/exclude.txt /fs22/a/circuit_design mickey.willow.com:/cpu/store/design where file /fs21/tmp/perl_scripts/exclude.txt contains the following directories and files to be excluded from /fs22/a/circuit_design :

Hi, I tried performing a complete copy of 17GB of filesystems over the WAN (0.8GB/hr) with the speed of 16Mbps. The filesystem consists of several large g-zipped files. These large g-zipped files have actually been zipped out of other sub-filesystems and directories. I noticed that while transferring a lists of large g-zipped files, rsync tends to take a much longer time to transfer those files

Hi, I've got a fileserver that runs Centos 5.2. It's been stable otherwise stable for maybe a year or more, and now it's crashed three times since Saturday. The first two times the computer was completely unresponsive, and there was nothing on the console, and nothing in the logs. I was beginning to suspect hardware, (esp. RAM, PSU, or maybe a failed fan) Last night it

Hi, I have setup a cron job to rsync files between two servers every hour. 30 * * * * rsync -avz --delete rsyncsrv1::ftp/ /export/ftp/ This works fine most of the time, but if I have a very large file that needs to be transfered ( many tens of MBs), I run into a problem. Since the link between my two servers is slow, it can take more than an hour to complete the rsync transfer. So at the

Folks, Got an odd one here that's had me scratching my head for a few days! Samba 3.3.4-31 from SuSE's RedHat repository, RHEL5 on x86. Compiled OK once I'd worked out how to force a build on the libraries I needed, I also added the code back in to support the 'winbind: ignore domains' directive in smb.conf. Discovered the hard way that 'make install' doesn't

Guys, Quick Question with Long Background :-) File server (FS1) Backup of File Server (FS2) Previously, the arrangement is I rsync copies of the files from FS1 to FS2 every-night and this box FS2 is only accessible via SSH and nothing else. So, in the event of file curruption, they will have to contact me with details and I will try to fish out the files. Now, to make this easier, I've

Hi, Is there a way in which rsync's -z compression (zlib) utility can be benchmarked? I'm trying to compare the compression ratio between rsync and external compression tools like gzip and bzip2. Are there any advantages to using rsync's internal compression mechanism specified with the -z option compared to solely applying external compression i.e. bzip2 to the files and invoking

Dear R experts This probably seems very easy to you guys, but I'm a beginner and would be really glad if someone helped me with this: I am trying to automate the execution of an R script (let's call it "myscript.R") by passing a variable from a bash script to myscript.R. I know I can use the command Rscript, but I don't know how to declare in bash which variable will be

I have a script that runs as a cron job every minute (on Ubuntu 10.10 and R 2.11.1), querying a database for new data. Most of the time it takes a few seconds to run, but once in while it takes more than a minute and the next run starts (on the same data) before the previous one has finished. In extreme cases this will fill up memory with a large number of runs of the same script on the same data.

I have set up an cluster with ocfs2 on top of drbd in primary/primary mode. As long as the datadir is in /var/lib/mysql, everything works fine. But as soon as I put the datadir on the ocfs2 filesystem /mnt/data/mysql mysql fails with: [Ubuntu] root at fs2:/etc# mysqld --safe-mode 090930 18:08:14 [Warning] Can't create test file /mnt/data/mysql/fs2.lower-test 090930 18:08:14 [Warning]

Hello, I''m sure there is a simple solution, but I am unable to figure this one out. Assuming I have tank/fs, tank/fs/fs1, tank/fs/fs2, and I set sharenfs=on for tank/fs (child filesystems are inheriting it as well), and I chown user:group /tank/fs, /tank/fs/fs1 and /tank/fs/fs2, I see: ls -la /tank/fs user:group . user:group fs1 user:group fs2 user:group some_other_file If I mount

Hi Community, I have a question about how to pass command line parameters to R script running in the batch mode. The problem is: there is a banch of data files which are to be processed by R script called from a web-server, i.e. in the batch mode. The web server generates data files and passes their names calling 'R CMD BATCH' one by one for every file. Now the question is how to

The following code works fine as long as I don''t try to run it through the distributed server. It doesn''t get there... It runs fine out of delayed_job, runs fine if called directly. But if ''distrib'' is true (the default) it runs right up to the call to the server and right past it without getting to the server or raising any errors. Am using Ruby 1.8.6.26 ,

Greetings folks; I have a bit of a conundrum, and I can't tell if Asterisk is doing something daft, or whether I'm clean missing out why it's doing what it's doing.

Hi All, I am using Samba 3.2.11 on sles 10. I have create a Unix group 'grp1' and mapped it to a ntgroup "Group One". Unix group 'grp1' has one user i.e 'usr1'. 'net groupmap' command show the mapping with correct SID and gid value. Please, have a look here. # cat /etc/group | grep grp1 grp1:!:12613:usr1,raj1,raj2 # # net groupmap list Group One

Hello list! I have a newish Samba 4.1.4 (from git) AD DC running in an Ubuntu Precise KVM guest. It seems to be running well. Recent list posts have led me to set up a second instance of samba/ubuntu as a file server. Like the domain controller, Samba was built from git, but then it was configured using the "Samba/Domain Member" wiki. I added the sfu attributes to a few users/groups

Hi all, I have rsync'ed directory /rootdir/dirdir/ from Server1 to Server2, using cmd on Server2 "rsync Server1:/rootdir/dirdir -avz /rootdir/dirdir". There were some sub-directories from Server1 got updated to become the symbolic links. For example, directory /rootdir/dirdir/subdir1/ now becomes the symbolic link /rootdir/dirdir/subdir1 pointing to the new created directory

hi all, I hope you can help me with a strange quota/nfs/XFS behavior... I'm using Centos 5.6 on both a nfs server and client. Both are 64-bit, and using a recent kernel: NFS server: Linux fs2.priv 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue May 31 13:22:04 EDT 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux NFS client: Linux nx8.priv 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue May 31 13:22:04 EDT 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64

Hello, we recently had a big problem with a very high load on our linux (Sles11 SP3) samba server version 3.6.3. We experienced a system load of up to 90 for 300 active samba users. The result was that hardly any user was able to really do anything (eg access a file via samba). One sympton was visible in a very high share of cpu *system* time (about 25% on each of the 10 CPUs). This system load
