Hi, I have a particular directory in my exclude list, but I want it excluded from --delete-excluded. Is this possible. or maybe if I explain what I'm trying to do, someone will come up with a more suitable way. I am using rsync (2.6.6) to backup data from a Windows Server (cygwin) to an OpenBSD box. rsync -rtvz --delete-excluded --del --timeout=3600 -e "ssh -i c:\cygwin\ssh-key"

Hi. I've been having a frustrating problem with rsync that I'm looking for advice on. My goal is to syncronize a set of servers with the same libraries, binaries, and main configuration files without touching the unique data that exists on the indivudual servers. My --exclude-from file is rather extensive but it works great when pulling from a daemon. I'm able to start an rsync daemon

Hi all, I have been using rsync to copy multiple dirs, eg: rsync -aR dira dirb /tmp Now, I no longer want to copy dirb, and I want it to be removed on the remote side, and I cannot figure how to achieve this. I tried: rsync -aR --exclude=dirb --exclude-deleted dira dirb /tmp but this has no effect. I have searched for similar posts, and found:

Hi all, getting started with rsync. One of the best utilities I've used! My question is: I am syncing from my local web development directory (/var/www/mysite) to another drive shared by our dev team. The copy I am syncing to is a local subversion repository, and thus contains .svn directories. So I want to sync from the dev directory (which doesn't have .svn directories) to one that

Hello I'm looking for a way to exclude and delete some items but not delete other items. Use case: I'm on Windows where there are folders like recycle.bin and system volume information on every drive. I can exclude them while backing up my data drive. But I now also have other data that is excluded and that I want to delete from my existing backup. However if I use --delete-excluded then

Hello all, I want to copy all files on the SRC side to the DST side without deleteing any from the DST side. However, whenever I run rsync the files on the DST side are deleted if they were deleted from the SRC side. What am I doing wrong? I am running the following command: ======================================================== rsync -avz --progress --force --delete-excluded

I've a problem understanding the --delete option (well, I think I understand why it works that way but I miss how to make it work the way I want). I want to use rsync to "mirror" two live Apache servers (I've tried to simplify my problem to a small example, but it's part of a bigger project). Regularly, the apache directory tree is rsynced from a master server to its slave

Hi there, we have an odd problem, which maybe how rsync is intended to work, but I think not: On server side, we run rsync in daemon mode with a share [foo] that has a serverside path of /foo. On client side, we invoke rsync -zavuSH --delete server::foo/ /foo. The rsync daemon uses an exclusion list. The problem is, the client rsync deletes clientside whatever is in the exclusionlist. If I read

Hi, I'm running the following command for a remote host backup: /usr/local/bin/rsync -a --delete --delete-excluded -v --timeout=120 -z --no-whole-file -partial --partial-dir .rsync-partial --exclude=/sys/* --exclude=/tmp/* --exclude=/stuff/distfiles/* --exclude=/stuff/sistema/* --exclude=/stuff2/ftp/* --exclude=/stuff2/backup/* --exclude=/home/ftp/* --exclude=/home/gentoo/* --exclude=/mnt/*

Hi, New to this list, but long-time (appreciative) user of rsync. Grateful for any help with my problem here... In particular, I've been having long-standing issues (just now getting around to trying to resolve them) when I use rsync with '--copy-unsafe-links' alongside the '--delete' parameter. If I use either of these two parameters in isolation (along with other shared

Hello, Since the very first day I've been using rsync - some 15 years ago - the filtering rules caused great grieve. Their behaviour is just not the way I'd expect it be be and as I read the manpage. Usually I end up with some hand-written recipes, carefully documented,y including all the gotchas. This time however I failed and I see no other way than to ask for advice. Given the

Hi, I've read as much as I can regarding the many problems people seem to have with -delete and none of the solutions seems to work for me. I have tried all combinations of using the trailing slash but it seems to have no effect. Does anyone know if -delete can work with -files-from? Here's the code: DIR="/mnt/backup/machine/oracle" FILES=".test_files.files"

I hate to say anything remotely negative to Wayne but... That wording from the man page makes almost no sense without the examples directly after it (and I have read it many times and know what it is saying). When I go all RTFM on this topic I usually tell them to 'man rsync', search for file-will-not-be-found and start reading from that line. Once you understand the broken and correct

Quick question, Is there a difference if an --exclude-from (or just plain --exclude) is specified on the daemon or the client? I'm setting up daemons on each of my remote servers, and have a host with a RAID connected to it be the client to pull the data over the network. I'm wondering if there is a difference in memory usage, speed, etc. by specifying the excluded files on one side or

Hello R Helpers, Business - 64 bit windows 7, R 2.11.1 I am trying to match the character contents of one list, called 'exclude', to those of a second list, called 'dataset' dataset is a list of file names with folder locations, and looks like this when called: > dataset [1] "A/10-10-29a-13.cdf" "A/10-10-29a-14.cdf" "A/10-10-29a-15.cdf"
