similar to: hardlinking and -R (multiple source directories)

Hi Justin No i did a test setup after getting to it in real life. In this test setup: - rsync (daemonless) is run - ctrl-c, - results are checked, - dest directory is deleted and so on. in 50 % the file is left over. i can reproduce it on a big fat slow (relative to a small ext4 partition on same lvm) xfs-partition. If i do this on root I even if I manage tp ctrl-c at the right time, I

Hi folks, man page says "By default, rsync will delete any partially transferred file if the transfer is interrupted" I have (reproducible) a partial file left, if I do CTRL-C source-dir: mounted LVM XFS dest-dir: see source-dir Ubuntu 12.04.1 (LTS) kernel 3.2.0-39-generic command: rsync -a

Hi, hardlinking (-H) works perfectly while using a syntax like -avhxSDH <SRC> <DEST> Now I have to mirror multiple SRC directories which contain hardlinks. e. g: src1/a is a hardlink to src2/b -RavhxSDH SRC1 SRC2 DEST does not preserve hardlink a and b in DEST. Is there any chance to do that? Thanks lopiuh -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

As part of my backup system, I use Rsync to keep a copy of each server on one central backup server. This backup server then uses StoreBackup to keep multiple iterations of each clone directory. So that the StoreBackup archives don't keep adding "redundant" and misleading backups, I update a flag file with the current date/time before doing the Rsync update, and test to see if this

rsync -av /src/ /dst/ && touch /dst/done That should do it as the touch only happens if rsync exits with a code of 0. If you need to consider other non zero exit code, it is still doable, just a bit more shell code. There are surely other options as well, but this is probably the most simple.

Hi, I think about buying a NAS-server from Sun. To backup this server I want to use our central to-tape backup. For whatever reason ppl are asking me to make one compressed copy to disk and only backup this copy. So to reduce load I'd like to have a script that: identifies changed files only (using md5?) copies them and compresses them storeBackup.pl does something similar, but keeps

Hi, Version: sync version 3.3.0 protocol version 31 If I do a <rsync -avhHXASDn --del /mnt/ /foo/mnt/> I get: ================= sending incremental file list var/log/journal/ sent 263,31K bytes received 1,14K bytes 528,90K bytes/sec total size is 294,92M speedup is 1.115,21 (DRY RUN) ================= including option <-i>: rsync -avhHXASDin --del /mnt/ /foo/mnt/ I get:

The scripts I use analyze the rsync log after it completes and then sftp's a summary to the root of the just completed rsync. If no summary is found or the summary is that it failed, the folder rotation for that set is skipped and that folder is re-used on the subsequent rsync. The key here is that the folder rotation script runs separately from the rsync script(s). For each entity I want

Hi folks, I have a bunch of directories to mirror via rsync. I have lots of hardlinked files spread about these directories. Therfore I use -R (--relative) and -H. so far ok but: I create symlinks to the source-directories via script because src-dirs have changing names (date and time of backup) and I want to have constant directory names on target. How can I achieve that? I thought -k

Rsync serves so well as a core component to backup, I can be blind about "something other than rsync". I'll look at the tools you suggest. However, you've made be

It appears that xattr changes (that is what the x mens) never made it into the verbose output. I would call that a bug but I would rather it be fixed by making -v include -i.

Hey guys, i tried to create a simple rsync script that should create daily backups from a ZFS storage and put them into a timestamp folder. After creating the initial full backup, the following backups should only contain "new data" and the rest will be referenced via hardlinks (-link-dest) This was at least a simple enough scenario to achieve it with my pathetic scripting skills.

Hi list, is there any working solution for deduplication of data for centos? We are trying to find a solution for our backup server which runs a bash script invoking xdelta(3). But having this functionality in fs is much more friendly... We have looked into lessfs, sdfs and ddar. Are these filesystems ready to use (on centos)? ddar is sthg different, I know. Thx Rainer

Hi all! I'm building a raid box to use for backups, connectivity will be either USB3 or esata. Looking for suggestions on backup software I can use. I know there's rsync, which may be a good solution. I also find backupPC at epel, backintime also at epel, kbackup. DejaDup looks interesting, but none of the repos I'm set up to use shows it being available. some small details: I

I list, I'm new with backup ops and I'm searching a good system to accomplish this work. I know that on centos there are bacula and amanda but they are too tape oriented. Another is that they are very powerfull but more complex. I need a solution for small office for disk storage and I found Backup PC. Many people say that it is great for small stuff and for great number of data. What do
