similar to: strange behavior of --inplace on ZFS

Hi I have a setup where my dovecot (2.0, if that makes a difference) authenticates against an LDAP directory. In my scenario, I have two types of users, lets call them "normal" and "privileged". What I need is for the normal user to have a fixed quota, but for the priviledged to have none. (The users do not exist on the underlying system, so I cant do quota based on FS)

I have been doing some experiments with rsync on btrfs, a copy-on-write file system that is approaching or having just achieved production-ready status depending on your requirements. For my purposes the reliability appears by almost all accounts to be there, and the compression alone makes it very compelling. However the following two experiments show rsync behaviors that are disappointing to

From: Jean-Christian de Rivaz <jc at eclis.ch> I suspect that some instructions about how to use the diag/mbr was not updated when the source file was renamed to handoff.S. Here is a simple proposition to fix that.

Long story short, my cat jumped on my server at my house crashing two drives at the same time. It was a 7 drive raidz (next time ill do raidz2). The server crashed complaining about a drive failure, so i rebooted into single user mode not realizing that two drives failed. I put in a new 500g replacement and had zfs start a replace operation which failed at about 2% because there was two broken

Wayne, I noticed that rsync will let me apply a non-inplace batch file in inplace mode. This corrupts the destination file if the batch file copies any data forward (from earlier offsets to later ones). Of course, the post-transfer checksum detects the corruption and gives the "ERROR: <file> failed verification" message, but rsync doesn't give the user a clue why the

While iflag=count_bytes combined with bs > 1 allows for more efficient operation, it is a feature of GNU dd, and not present on other implementations such as BSD. Sticking to just POSIX features makes things more portable. Signed-off-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> --- docs/nbdkit-loop.pod | 2 +- docs/nbdkit.pod | 4 ++--

Hi! As I commonly spell --inplace as --in-place, I'd like to suggest this simple patch: commit 5689f99b702788044a45e13582559832cf986328 Author: Jan-Benedict Glaw <jbglaw at lug-owl.de> Date: Wed Jun 26 22:49:31 2019 +0200 Allow "--in-place" as an alternative option name for "--inplace". diff --git a/options.c b/options.c index e5b0cb68..7ff0c51d 100644 ---

Hello list! How dangerous is acctually the --inplace option if you want to run rsync to update files that are only read and not written to? What is the worst that can happen? The file is not readable, the reader gets half the file of an old version and the rest is from the new version? There is not a simple way to make it update the file in the standard way and then change the ownership

My Samba v3.0.25b (in CentOS v5.1) has the smb.conf shown below. What I'm seeing is that "force create mode" is not enforced when accessed by a Linux CIFS client (Fedora 7). On the server, user steve has a home directory of /home/steve, and the public directory is /home/samba/public. The shares are mounted from the client fstab like this: //nemesis/steve /mnt/cifs/myhome cifs

Hi, I need to use rsync with options inplace and no-whole-file, but have problems with transfers of large files being frequently interrupted. partial-dir could be the solution, but it does not work with inplace-updating of destination files. I am thinking of doing the sync in two steps: 1) sync with --partial-dir and --backup-dir to send updated files to a different directory at the

Hi I'm having issues sendig a lot of tar.gz backup files to a ZFS remote filesystem server. This files are compressed with the --rsyncable option. Sending without --inplace option rsync works well and send only the differences, but to create a temporary file and rewrite the file destination, zfs snapshots contain the full size of the backup, not only differences block.
