Destination file is larger than source file
We are using the standard -av switch. And both filesystems are the same -
UFS.

rsync in daemon mode
Hi,
We use one server from which many other clients download files. This
operates in daemon mode over ssh. Is it possible that there is a max number
of connections the rsyncd can have on the server? Where is this value set?
This is what I see on the client side:
rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer (131)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(759)

[semi-OT] C7 Possible bug but I can't determine what tool has the problem
Hi all,
I'm writing a script that uses rsync to sync 2 dirs on C7.
I noticed a strange behaviour.
I have 2 dir: src and dest. In src dir I generate a testfile with "dd
if=/dev/zero of=testfile bs=1M count=100" and when I run "du -h
testfile" I get the correct result.
Then I sync src/ to dest/ using "rsync -avS? src/ dest/", all ok but
when I run "du -h

Why does "rsync -av" always claim (incorrectly?) that it is updating write protected directories?
Hi,
I usually run "rsync -av" so I can see all the files that have
been modified.
However, "rsync -av" always claims to be updating write
protected directories, even when they have not been changed. I do not
understand why.
Here is an example using rsync version 2.6.3 on FreeBSD 5.3.
I get similar results with rsync 2.6.0 on Gentoo Linux.

rsync of big image files from virtual hosts takes lot of time
Hi,
i'd like to rsync some image files from virtual hosts each night. The image files are between 50GB and 400GB big.
I thought rsync would be the appropriate solution because it just transfers the differences, not the whole file.
But nevertheless rsync takes hours.
The images aren't much modified over the day, i would expect just some tens of megabyte needed to be transfered.

"non-efficient" sparse file copying with rsync
Hi all!
There is a need to copy sparse files (precisely VMware disk images) with rsync. For that purpose I'm using the -S (--sparse) option and they are copied just fine (the check sums of the original and file at destination are the same). However, as it is said in the manual:
[quote] -S, --sparse Try to handle sparse files efficiently so they take up less space on the destination.

we have about 60 directories that rsync fine
issue is with 3 directories. Is it possible that some files in those
directories are "open", being written to etc that causes the issue?
connection reset by peer is the message we get. This is rsync in daemon
mode on TCP port 873

Is --sparse suitable for general purpose use?
Hi,
I'm using rsync with --link-dest to do backups.
I don't have any sparse files, but someday I might.
Should I be using --sparse?
I notice that -S is not implied by -a. This makes
me suspicious that --sparse is not (yet?) suitable
for general purpose use. There also seem to be
outstanding bugs related to --sparse.
Thanks.

rsync daemon only accessable as root
Hi,
I'm trying to setup an rsync daemon such that I can synchronize my home pc
(or other remote system) with my pc at work. I'm fairly new to linux and am
just starting to learn its amazing possibilities. I followed an online
toturial to create a rsyncd.conf file which reads:
#motd file = /etc/rsyncd.motd
log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log
pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid

Abysmal sparse file performance!
I have a 5.5GB file, mostly sparse. Tar performs far[!] better than rsync.
I have no ideas yet, so just an FYI as to current state.
FreeBSD 8.1 i386 zfs
Yes, I know the blocks used differs but don't know why yet, could
be just how zfs does things or related to the large amount of sparseness.
There are no media errors, CPU/IO load or anything like that and the source

performance suggestion: sparse files
So I was transferring a 2GB virtual machine disk image image over a slow
wireless link. Of course I used --sparse, to keep the image small on the
destination end as well as on the source end.
Much to my surprise, I noticed that the transfer took a long time even
when it got past the first 0.5GB of actually-populated file. A little
sleuthing with strace revealed that the source rsync was dutifully

rsync hangs in cron (not SSH-problem)
This is the case
- mounted Inetpub's windows-webserver on /mnt/web1 /mnt/web2, etc.
- rsync this to local dir:
rsync -av --delete /mnt/web1 /mass/kuurne/day
rsync -av --delete /mnt/web2 /mass/kuurne/day
etc..
- when logged in, everything works (I do see some errors about
non-existing files, but rsync won't stop.

rsync, --sparse and VM disk images
Hi Bas,
I'm not sure if this is of interest, but I also had issues with VM
disk-image sparse-files (in my case KVM, rather than VMWare), which
I've now resolved.
