similar to: rsync re-link instead of delete/copy?

How do I minimize the amount of disk activity? I'm copying a large number of files: rsync -av -W /from/here/. /to/here/. I'm using rsync because I need the incremental updates and other features. Otherwise, I'd use tar piped to tar or some similar technique. Note: Both the source and destination are "local". Well, not really. The source is a network-mounted partition

Hi all, Ok, since 3.1 still isn't in stable, I'm curious if I can just find the equivalent of: rsync -avHP --delete --exclude-from '/home/user/excludes.txt' /mnt/example.com/ /var/vmail/example.com/ But that will ignore differences in permissions - ie, won't recopy everything, just because the permissions on the source are different from the permissions on the target...

What's your dd command? Are you sure you are writing to the raw disk and not inside a partition?

Greetings, I am having a problem with rsync deleting entire folders and files and then attempting to recopy the entire contents of the folder(s) even though they are up to date. The task is syncing from ubuntu (rsync version 3.1.1) to windows using cygwin (rsync version 3.1.2). I have a number of these configurations, and they all work except this one. I use the modify-window=600 and cannot

I have a large disk full of data that I'd like to upgrade to SW RAID 1 with a minimum of downtime. Taking it offline for a day or more to rsync all the files over is a non-starter. Since I've mounted SW RAID1 drives directly with "mount -t ext3 /dev/sdX" it would seem possible to flip the process around, perhaps change the partition type with fdisk or parted, and remount as

Hi there, I would like to know if it is possible to modify a text file with a R function. In fact I would like to know if a function "Search & Replace" exists. My problem is to create config files from a Base file in which I have to modify values of parameters. My Base File: #... #... Param1= V1_1 #... Param2 = V2_1 Param3 = V3_1 #... What I would like for each created file

I usually use the command "dd if=iso of=usbdevice status=progress && sync" On Wed, 29 Jan 2020, 18:36 Erick Perez - Quadrian Enterprises, < eperez at quadrianweb.com> wrote: > That happened to me several times > My USB was "burned" and never displayed new data copied to it. > By "burned" I mean the flash drive was faulty up to a point where

I have some questions about whether I should set up folders under INBOX vs. having them outside the INBOX namespace. I'm setting up a new Dovecot 2.2.0 on an Ubuntu 12.04.2 server. My plan is to move my users (family members) to this new server from an old Cyrus server. Everybody is currently using (and will continue to use) IMAP, and either Thunderbird or SquirrelMail as their e-mail

Hi, this is my first message here. I need help, the reason is in the title. The version running is SAMBA_4.0.0ALPHA18_DEVELOPERBUILD It was running just fine until I had (for some reason) had to transfer all the system (ubuntu 11.10 server) to another clean hard drive. I used "rsync -rltgoHDv /olddriveroot /newdriveroot" to copy the files, and installed grub on the new disk. Now the

Edouard, These are the 4 available parameters containing the word "inherit". inherit acls (S) inherit owner (S) inherit permissions (S) map acl inherit (S) Would "inherit acls" work for you?

I did the dd if=CentOS-8.1.1911-x86_64-dvd1.iso of=/dev/sdd to a 16G USB disk then tried to use it on an install. The installer said invalid install media. Any way to verify if the "write" to disk was good ? I got no errors on the dd. I did re-download the iso and did a diff and there was no diff. So I think my iso is OK. Jerry

Hello Dale, Set inherit acls = yes locally to my share groups, and remove map acl inherit = yes from global parameters of smb.conf does not solve my issue. I still have acl "Domain Users" added to new folders/files. As i write in my previous email, the only way i found to disable acl "Domain Users" to be added was with : inherit owner = yes With some disavantages for users

Hello, I set a share on a samba 4.7.1 as domain member with an Active Directory controler, this share is used by all domain users. All users from the AD domain have a primary group "Domain Users", and secondary groups to filter access on the folders of the share. I noticed that when a user create a sub-folder/file inside a "Top folder", the default permissions from the

Right now we do a lot of hard to hard disk backup by using rsync to weekly "mirror" the source filesystem to a backup filesystem. This works fairly well for most sources. However, one issue with rsync is that simple things like changing the file name or directory name cause the whole file or directory structure to get recopied over a previous sync. Also, like for mail spools, large

Is there a command that says DONT use the ifcfg-eth0 setting(s) that basically have a static address and start the network in DHCP. I dont want to disturb the static settings in ifcfg-eth0 or re-enter them once my DHCP setting is done... I just want to temporarily run with DHCP (I'm on different network than the static setup). Yes I can copy files and then recopy files and all that - but

Dear rsync maintainers, Hi, I have been seeing a problem for awhile in an rsync script I maintain with how rsync syncs symbolic links between and rsync daemon running on Linux and an rsync client running on recent Cygwin that I am wondering is a known issue. Basically rsync always copies symbolic links, even when they already exist on the destination. I run rsync multiple times, with

Well after a closer look - Seems like the OLD 8.0 iso image is still on the USB. Not the new 8.1 I have tried to redo the dd command to copy the 8.1 iso - I get no errors - but it still comes up with the 8.0 I then tried to remove the partitions, save and recopy. still same old boot menu. Is there a trick to write over the UEFI stuff ? Jerry

That happened to me several times My USB was "burned" and never displayed new data copied to it. By "burned" I mean the flash drive was faulty up to a point where it always showed a phantom image of what WAS in the pen drive.
