What about -c? It seems I'm getting a lot of spurious file transfer candidates when using: -avvznIi --no-o --no-g --no-p It's showing transfers (receive) for many files I know haven't been tampered with.

Ok, thank you for this extra info. I have experienced exactly what you described. The rsync dry run is _still_ running after being started at 1:30am PST :) But it is finding the right files to update. Most of the entries are: >fc........ Which is what I want. So, just because I see: >f at the beginning... That doesn't necessarily mean that the file is going to get updated at the

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 That is correct. Rsync will re-copy (delta xfer unless --wholefile) all the files. You can always --dry-run if you aren't sure.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - --checksum generally takes a lot longer than --size-only. A delta transfer generally goes quicker than a checksum. However, if you want to make a list of what is corrupt a checksumming utility that is less stupid than rsync can be useful. I say that because rsync's - --checksum is entirely unintelligent. It will checksum every single file on

Hi: I've been using rsync for a couple years now. Unfortunately, I've made some changes on both ends, so it's unclear what could be the culprit. I make extensive use of --link-dest to provide a cheap "Time Machine"-like backup for a Windows machine. Source: Windows 7 running Cygwin (CYGWIN_NT-6.1 sith 1.7.33-2(0.280/5/3) 2014-11-13 15:47 x86_64 Cygwin) Destination: Synology

Hi: I have attempted to following some instructions to use --link-dest in order to preserve space for multiple backups. I'm using rsync on Cygwin with a NAS (ext4) which does support hard-links on the filesystem. I've written a short program that does attempt to create a hard-link on this NAS from Cygwin and it does look to be working. If I run ls -li on the NAS the inodes are the same.

This has been a consideration. But it pains me that a tiny change/addition to the rsync option set would save much time and space for other legit use cases. We know rsync very well, we dont know ZFS very well (licensing kept the tech out of our linux-centric operations). We've been using it but we're not experts yet. Thanks for the suggestion. /kc On Mon, Apr 06, 2015 at 12:07:05PM

OK. Thanks. Where can I find information regarding how to interpret —itemize-changes? The timestamps aren’t changing, so the target must not be storing them, which I have no idea why. The directory I’m writing to is 777. What is the flag to tell rsync to ignore the timestamps? Thanks, Blake On 6/2/16, 6:18 PM, "rsync on behalf of Kevin Korb" <rsync-bounces at lists.samba.org on

Thanks Kevin! I¹m unclear how to read the ‹itemize-changes output. Can you provide some insight? This is a local transfer from an external drive to an internal drive all attached to one computer. rsync -aPh --itemize-changes -n /Volumes/shuttle_05/2012_79_1_14_1__1199_Workprint /Volumes/3TB_LTO/LT003A/ sending incremental file list >f..t.......

Thank you! I run --times when I use rsync (I actually use the -a flag) but the times do not transfer over and if I run rsync dryrun with -i I can see that it wants to transfer the files because of times. When I run rsync a second time with your suggestion the times do transfer over. I don't know why... B ________________________________________ From: rsync [rsync-bounces at lists.samba.org]

Cool Thanks! Specifically, the timestamps on both <src> and <dest> match for "ls -l" but do not match for "ls -lu" or "ls -lc” The storage is just an regular HDD in a mac pro tower. I can’t imagine why it wouldn’t handle timestamps. Also of note - this problem doesn’t exist for every file, just the vast majority. So, that just makes it more confusing. Yes,

How do I transfer just the modification times with rsync? I now the file content is the same but the modification times are different. Is there a way to do this? Every way that I have tried causes the whole file to transfer as well. Thanks -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi Kevin, I haven't specified --whole-file. After entering an rsync command the terminal always reads "delta-transmission disabled for local transfer or --whole-file" but I assume that is just a standard phrase that always appears. So, if I am running partial (-P) and not using --whole-file or disabling the delta-transmission, why would an incomplete file be deleted and the

rsync in daemon mode is very powerful, yet it comes with one big disadvantage: data is sent in plain. The workarounds are not really satisfying: - use VPN - one needs to set up an extra service, not always possible - use stunnel - as above - use SSH - is not as powerful as in daemon mode (i.e. read only access, chroot, easy way of adding/modifying users and modules etc.) Why was encrypted

is there a script which analyses rsync output with --itemize-changes ? i.e. i would like to have extended information on number of deleted files, created directories, changed files.... i know rsync 3.1.x is better with this, but it`s still not in centos 5/6/7 and i don`t want to update tons of systems to get extended statistics, so i wonder if anbody did an analyze script to get that information

Running latest rails, etc on windows xp. I can''t use "rake migrate" to migrate to latest version.
