is there anything special to do this from the daemon server. I've setup the /etc/rsyncd.conf with some filesystems and I would rather originate (control) my rsyncs from this server and not from the hosts that have the data I want. ie. I want to pull not push. for instance my rsyncd.conf [www] comment = www path = /snaps/www numeric ids = true log file = /snaps/rsync/logs/www.log pid file

Hi All, I am aware that rsync can be run to just list the files that have changed between the source and destination. I would like to capitalize on that feature to monitor some development that is going on in order to get a complete list of files that have been changed on a server. I realize that I can create an initial rsync of the files to some other location and then sometime later run

Trying to automate backup of the following local mounts/directories to a usb drive (/mnt/usbbackup); here's what's in my include file: + /home/gravyface/www/* + /mnt/datadisk1/music/* + /mnt/datadisk2/projects/* If I run the following, nothing happens, so I checked the man and I'm not specifying a source (I thought the include-from was the source): sudo rsync --progress -avz

I'm really confused with all the examples out there and all different types of incremental backups. I tried several scripts but cannot reduce the size of my backup folders. What I want is to backup my documents to my external drive every month and save as much disk space as possible. Lets say I have 3 backup directories in the external drive, backup03.10, backup04.10 and backup05.10. I want

Hi All, I am writing a backup program for my computer. brief outline is as follows. Running ubuntu 10.04 2 main partitions, / and /home, both ext3. 1 external usb hdd, ext3, mounted to /backups/main. once every couple of days, rsync backs up, using following command, everything worth backing up in / and /home partitions to a folder /backups/main/Full. command: "rsync -vrhRupElog

Hi, I have few questions that could not find answers to in documentation. Different filesystems: Lets say I want to keep all extended attributes and everything else, so I use -A, -X, --perms etc., together with --fake-super. Now, lets say source FS supports some attributes not supported on target FS (for example, XFS extended attributes). Would this work as expected (ie. extended attributes are

How do you handle snapshotting? or do you leave that to the block/fs virtualization layer? /kc On Fri, Apr 17, 2015 at 01:35:27PM +1200, Henri Shustak said: >> Our backup procudures have provision for looking back at previous directories, but there is not much to be gained with recycled directories. Without recycling, and after a failure, the latest available backup may not have much

Hello, I have got three folders: - /home/backup/2008-10-20 - place for differential backup - /mnt/for_backup - folder with files for backup - /home/backup/2008-10-01 - place where the last full backup is My question: is below command prepared correctly to make differential backup? rsync -avPbn --backup-dir=/home/backup/2008-10-20/ --exclude "System Volume Information" --exclude

Feature request: allow --link-dest dir to be linked to even if file exists in target. This statement from the man page is adhered to too strongly IMHO: "This option works best when copying into an empty destination hierarchy, as rsync treats existing files as definitive (so it never looks in the link-dest dirs when a destination file already exists)". I was suprised by this behaviour

Brandysnap is an rsync-based script with a difference. Unlike dirvish, it does not assign importance to snapshots when they are created. All snapshots are created equal, and then they are managed so that the required number of old snapshots is maintained. Unlike rsnapshot, brandysnap does not get its snapshots out of sync if runs are missed, and it is very easy to configure. The link between

Sorry to do this .... AGAIN Every year or two I get stuck on this same problem involving excluding. Seems I learn how its done then 2yrs later I've totally forgotten and when I look up my notes ... this new need is just different enough that they don't apply. Here's the problem.
