(I'm not sending this to dirvish@pegasus because I think that this message applies more to rsync's --link-dest option than to just dirvish.) I recently noticed a huge spike in dirvish network usage and traced it to files whose permissions had been changed. (with rsync v2.5.6) I understand and agree that a --link-dest copy of a source file cannot be hardlinked to, but couldn't a

I've got a problem for which the combination of -R and --link-dest doesn't seem to be quite enough---and I may have discovered a few small bugs as well; test cases are below. [And if someone has a scheme for doing this that doesn't involve rsync at all, but works okay, I'm all ears as well---I'm not the first with this problem.] Here's my problem: I unfortunately need to

Hi! It's me again with another --link-dest issue: I am using dirvish (www.dirvish.org) to create daily backup on disk images. dirvish is using rsync with --link-dest pointing to the last good image. This creates images with hardlinks to unmodified files. So far so good. Now I want to create a "current" filetree with hardlinks pointing to the last image. rsync -vaH --delete

I notice that devices are not hardlinked when using the --link-dest option, for instance: rsync -aH --link-dest=../bar/ foo/ baz/ When foo/zero is a device, baz/zero is not a hardlink to bar/zero.

I'm wondering if I can use link-dest to compare rsync to a remote directory. rsync -aCHh --stats --link-dest=akane::backup/ranma.daily.1 / myserver::akane/ranma.daily.0 Something like that? Is it going to work like it does when doing a local rsync with a local link-dest directory? Is it going to chew massive amounts of bandwidth? Is there something else I should be doing

I've identified a situation where the combination of --fuzzy --fuzzy (yes: two of them) and --link-dest is not behaving as I'd expect. I'm first wondering if my expectation is wrong. Assuming that it is not, then I'm wondering how best to figure out the problem. The double use of --fuzzy is based upon https://bugzilla.samba.org/ show_bug.cgi?id=4056 which should be present on

I was saddened to learn today that JW Schultz was found dead back on March 27th of this year. JW was a big help in the recent development of rsync and I sorely missed his presence during the last release cycle. JW was also the author of the Dirvish backup software, and Keith Lofstrom (who provided me with the sad news) has plans to put some memorial information onto the new dirvish site as

Hi all, I have installed rsync 2.5.5 as daemons on our 35 Netware servers (no 2.5.6 is yet available for Netware) and do a daily sync from a Linux Rsync client machine with 1.2 TB disk capacity. For the moment we do a daily, weekly and monthly backup on tape of this machine, but I'd like to replace the daily backups by a disc-based setup. It would be good to be able to share the
