similar to: How much file list kept during incremental recursion?

Hi, Well, I need the procedure or how to do a full backup of archives to a directory. Then, do incremental backups in different directories. For example: source-dir to dest-dir a full backup. incremental of sources-dir and differential of backup-dir in `date +%m%h%y` Then, i should have a full backup in the dest-dir and incremental+diferential backup in every $DATE directory. Any ideas? I try

hi! i want to use rsync for backup to central storage. from emc networker i know some nice feature - it`s telling about "changed files during save" - i.e. i know which files have changed their contents while being backed up. for example you can see if shutdown of some oracle database was forgotten and that database was backed up online accidentally. what`s the rsync equivalent to

Hi all, I'm attempting to build a backup system using rsync and subversion. I have a samba share which I would like to replicate via rsync. The replicated copy is under subversion control to store a 'history'. This appears to work well until a directory is removed on the primary (non-backup) file system. The rsync command which I assumed would do the job: $ rsyc -zrv

I''m running 2.6.6 on a red hat EL3 system. using the following command, rsync -rlptDvzL --stats --include=a/ --include=a/dir/ --include=a/dir/symlink/ --include=a/dir/symlink/dir2/ --include=a/dir/symlink/dir2/dir3/ --exclude=''**'' /export/stuff remote::stuff I expect the "symlink" (which is really a symbolic link to a directory) to be preserved on the

Given two directories "foo" and "fooprime", can I have rsync make a file or directory "d", that contains the differences between these two directories such that I can take d and apply it to foo to get fooprime, or take fooprime and reverse-apply d to it to get foo? I'm not sure that the --backup and --backup-dir options to rsync will give me exactly what I want.

Hello ! I`m trying to find a way to use lzo compression for the data being transferred by rsync. rsync only supports gzip (or maybe ssh -c, which is also zlib), which gives cpu intensive workload - and this cannot be exchanged by a commandline param like we have with tar (--use-compress-program=....) i like to use lzo because it does much faster compression than gzip. I read the following in

I have a scenario where I am copying from a local system to remote target and need to remove the local source files once they have been successfully transfered. --remove-source-files works fine for this. An issue has come up in that I need to be able to backup the removed local source files as well. With rsync 2.6.9 I tried: rsync --remove-source-files --backup-dir=/archive –abv (source)

I am having trouble running rsync over a mapped drive. Basically it only copies whole files. I use the -rvcS switches. Any suggestions?

I wrote a patch for rsync 2.6.6 that changes two things: (1) When the receiving rsync creates a file in a directory with a default ACL and `--perms' is off, rsync uses the default ACL instead of the umask to calculate the new file's permissions. All programs that just use `open' and don't do an explicit `chmod' are forward-compatible with default ACLs, but rsync always sets

Hi all, I'm new to the rsync list. I've been searching for two days and have tried five different installs and so far none work the way I need them to.

Hi, I was in under impression that rsync 3.0.5/3.0.6 creates all the missing directories in the path but I think I am wrong. Could any one tell me is it possible to create all missing dirs in path at destination side if not exists. Currently, I have been getting below errors. rsync -avz /tmp/mytest/rsync-test/dir-test/parent-dir/ desthost:/tmp/mytest/rsync-test/dir-test/parent-dir/ sending

Wayne, I noticed that rsync's "*deleting" itemize output needs two trailing spaces now that the other itemize codes are 11 characters wide. See the patch below.

Hi, I'm very interested in learning the status of the --ignorecase patch being included in the main tree... is there a reason it still isn't in there? For anyone who is forced to dealing with backing up windows boxes, this is a big problem, and I can't believe that it isn't affecting a lot of people... Or maybe there is a simple workaround? I'm trying to backup files

Hello, I was reading your posts about RSYNC. We have a massive Oracle schema lots of datafiles about 750 GB size. We do rsync datafiles from source to target server but everytime we cleanup the datafiles on the target server and do rsync every 2 weeks. On the target side mostly the datafiles will be same but on source we might have added few datafiles or made some changes in data and as such the

Suppose we have about 1000 files at location 'A' & 500 files at location 'B' & we want them to be transmitted to each other (not exactly synchronizing two location). RSYNC can do that, no issues on that. But i have few queries further. My first query: 1. Can we make some sort of queuing procedure alongwith or through RSYNC. Like in which we can provide priorities to

Hello, I'm using rsync 3.0.3 over ssh to sync data between two hosts. I can't get the incremental recursion working: rsync -vLogtprz --progress --delete --delete-during --partial -e "ssh -p 1234" --numeric-ids user at host /local/dir/ The documentation states that the only thing which disables incremental recursion is not using delete-during (or disabling it by --no-i-r).
