similar to: module name check

Hi All Tried to search the list but could not find anything about this. I have a rsync daemon running with starting cwd as /usr/local/bin. then after some io, and after all io finished, its cwd is /fs1 which is one of the module path. now i need to umount fs1 and i can not do it. is this a known issue or something worthy fix? not sure what else information i need to provide. thanks. -- Ming

Hi All Some time rsync just return error code 23 that some files are not transferred. Is there a way to get a list of these files so we can retry it later time? For example, we scan the whole file system and N files are not transferred. Instead of scan the whole file system later again, we can use files-from which is much faster. Thanks. -- Ming Zhang @#$%^ purging memory... (*!%

Hi All I run rsync in an automated environment and it sometime will crash and leave a core dump file. from core dump, gdb shows that gdb) bt #0 add_dirs_to_tree (parent_ndx=-1, from_flist=0x56c590, dir_cnt=1) at flist.c:1422 #1 0x0000000000409eab in send_file_list (f=16, argc=-1, argv=0x56c238) at flist.c:2068 #2 0x0000000000419052 in client_run (f_in=16, f_out=16, pid=-1, argc=1,

Hi What should be the right exit code for vanished file in this scenario. (1) Use inotify or other mechanism to check changed files and then generate a file list. (2) < file get deleted> (3) run rsync with --files-from with the old list. then send_file_list()->link_stat() will return errno 2 on some files and then set exit code to 23. but shall rsync return 24? -- Ming Zhang

Hi I have a file system that contains millions of small files. Since I backup it everyday with rsync using slow WAN link, I think it will be nice that if rsync can do this: An option that let rsync only check with remote rsync daemon about local files that has last modification time newer than one day ago (so is modified since yesterday backup). This can greatly reduce the WAN traffic. Is this

Hi All I would like to use rsync to synchronize two file system tree over WAN periodically. The file system trees contain millions of small image files. Base on our understanding, rsync try to generate file name list before doing any operation, we easily run short of memory and have impact on our normal file system activities. I wonder if rsync can have an option that when it scan the file

Hi All We always run rsync with --files-from and sometime it gets a error code 23, partial transfer. is it possible to find out what files are not transferred without check the error message by human eye(since we want to do it in a script)?

Hi All Any idea when the 3.0.0 will be rolled out? Thanks! -- Ming Zhang @#$%^ purging memory... (*!% http://blackmagic02881.wordpress.com/ http://www.linkedin.com/in/blackmagic02881 --------------------------------------------

Hi All I ran into this situation when rsync some files to remote side and remote file system run out of space. rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes [sender]: Connection reset by peer (104) rsync: write failed on "/IMG_5106.JPG" (in dest): No space left on device (28) ~~~~ no space was detected and reported. rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at receiver.c(298)

Hi All This can be reproduced easily. run rsync under gdb and set a break point at read_timeout(). then after rsync talk with remote rsync daemon and stop at this function, turn off remote machine directly. then let rsync run and it will run forever in this function. if we just kill remote rsync daemon, it is fine and quickly detected, because OS do clean up work. But if power off the box

Hi All If rsync gets files from standard input, when it starts to process that file, immediately or read until EOF, or somewhere in between? For example, if a list is generated slowly but continuously and keep feeding to rsync, will rsync wait a very long time before ever handling the first file? Is this behavior controllable? Thanks! Ming -- never so busy...

Hi all When rsync replicate one file to remote side, will the extended attributes be copied as well? Thanks, Ming

Hi all, I upgrade my rsync from 2.3.1 to 2.6.6 today in the client host, everything seems not working after the migration. I didn't touch the rsync server. Herewith is the log from my rsync server. I looks like something related to IPV6, anyone has any idea? Rsync Server : RHEL4 with rsync 2.6.3 deamon running Rsync Client (merlin) : Solaris 8 with rsync 2.6.6 2006/05/09 16:18:40 [5332]

I am able to perform the following line rsync -rsh="/usr/bin/ssh" filename host:/dir/filename But I am not able to perform this rsync -rsh="/usr/bin/ssh" filename host:module_name where rsyncd.conf contains the following pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log read only = false [module_name] path = /home/test comment =

I have great luck running rsync from one linux system to another, or from a windows system (with cwRsync) to a linux system. But when I try to do an rsync backup from one directory on a Windows system to another, it fails. The cwRsync says its version is 2.6.9. Here's my Rsync command, boiled down to its simplest: rsync -rlptgD -vvv --delete --delete-excluded --modify-window=2

Hello, we would like to use rsync (2.6.2 manualy patched and recompiled) in daemon mode spawned by inetd (Solaris 5.8 Environment). /etc/services: rsync 1234/tcp #RSYNC daemon /etc/inet/inetd.conf: rsync stream tcp nowait publish /usr/bin/rsync rsyncd --daemon --port 1234 . Alas, this does not seem to work, there is the following error message in the log file:

I've run across a situation where I have a directory of .gz files. I do want to rsync this directory. I've tried without the --compress (because they are already compressed) but the files never get rsynced. Interactively, I get the following error: :rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(1045) In the /etc/rsyncd.log, for each of the files, I get:

Hello, I am very new to rsync and am wanting to have it back up more than 4 remote linux servers via ftp. I want to write a script that will open up a ftp connection using "ftp://username:password@ftp.server.com" with a server, then mount the drive containing the backups, copy the data that is new, unmount the drive, close the connection and move onto the next server until every server

Hi All, I have installed rysnc-2.6.3 on my debian linux ( 2.2.20-idepci #1 Sat Apr 20 12:45:19 EST 2002 i686). While configuration it was successful and i installed it without any error. Now, in default installation it should create rsyncd.conf as detault configuration file.. but it has not been created anywhere in system. root@jike:/tmp/temp/rsync-2.6.3# which rsync /usr/local/bin/rsync In

Hi I am trying to rsync some ghost images from a windows client running Windows XP to my Linux server. The problem is that rsync sends the complete files again even if nothing changed on the client side. The only way to avoid this is to use the "-c"-option but this takes nearly as long as uploading the files would. The server is running rsync-2.6.9, /etc/rsyncd.conf looks as follows.
