The source is around 200G and the target box only has 500G total and some of it is used for other data. What I want to do

You could probably use CIFS, NFS or sshfs.  It wouldn't be as fast, but the memory requirements should be less.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 If you were using --link-dest to make multiple backups you wouldn't need --delete because the target is always a new empty directory (with - --link-dest pointing to the previous backup run). So, you get the benefit of having multiple backups to restore from and rsync doesn't have to --delete. When you run low on space you just rm - -rf some

Thanks I'll look this up. There is still the issue of how to get the target box cleaned up since I can no longer run --delete. /jl On Sun, Mar 27, 2016 at 02:49:02AM -0400, Kevin Korb wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > You miss-understand the purpose of --link-dest.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 You will have an old backup dir and a new backup dir. The new one will contain all the current stuff. The old one will contain what was current the last time you ran rsync. Just rm -rf the old one. Or keep a few. Or a few dozen. On 03/27/2016 02:54 AM, John Long wrote: > Thanks I'll look this up.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 You miss-understand the purpose of --link-dest. Yes, it gives you multiple complete backups, but each only consumes the disk space needed to store files that are unique to that backup. Files that are the same in 2 backup runs are actually the same file in multiple directories requiring only 1 to actually be stored. On 03/27/2016 02:39 AM, John Long

Hi all. A while ago (April 15th or so) I posted a patch that allows rsync to take multiple --compare-dest or --link-dest arguments, allowing fetching of files not present in multiple trees. I never got any feedback on it, though, so I'm picking it up again. :) Is there any interest in such a patch at all? Below is the usage example i outlined back then; --start-- [...] Its primary usage is

Hi! Usually dovecot auto detects or repairs the size of a maildir message. So I can place a message named "foo" in the cur directory and dovecot uses it. Now I tried the same with a zlib compressed message but here dovecot doesn't recognize/repair the size of the message. When I access this folder via IMAP the connection is diconnected and in dovecot logs I see the following

Hi all, I was busy programming a tool to automatically run some tests to update the FLAC comparison page (http://xiph.org/flac/comparison.html) when I stumbled across some weird behaviour of the flac program. So I compiled from git and it seems that this bug still is there. As I don't have any experience on coding C and don't know which bug-report facility to use, this seemed the

I am attempting to use rsync to copy a large filesystem from an HP-UX server to a Linux server with more than enough filespace. This operation fails. A small directory from the same HP-UX server can be transfered just as expected. The HP-UX server is the source. It has 1Gb RAM - the output of bdf for the volume the source files is on is: Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted

Greetings. If I do this: rsync --hard-links one.server.com::"module/somedir/images/redhat/3.0WS/en/os/i386 module/someotherdir/1.0/images/redhat/3.0WS/en/os/i386" /export/distros I get: /export/distros/i386/... and a conflict between the two sources. I want for destination: /export/distros/images/redhat/3.0WS/en/os/i386 /export/distros/1.0/images/redhat/3.0WS/en/os/i386 In other

Hi, I sometimes play around with extreme parameters for distributions and found that qbeta is not always monotone as the following example shows. I don't know whether this is serious enough to submit a bug report (as this example is near to the limitations of floating point arithmetic).

hei everyone, I have a weird problem: if I do a # cd /somedir; stat somesubdir |grep Modify where /somedir is some directory on an SMB-mounted filesystem I get one datetime... but I I do: # cd /somedir; stat * |grep Modify for the same directory I get a Modify time which consistently differs by 1 second. As I'm writing a perl module to detect differences in a filesystem and rely on the

Hello, I'm quite new to R but tried to learn as much as possible in the last few months. My problem is that I would like to estimate the model of Leon et al. (2005). I have shortly summarised the most important equations in the following pdf file: http://hannes.fedorapeople.org/leon2005.pdf My main question is now how could I introduce these two additional terms into the Likelihood

Do not pass GLOB_MARK as flag for glob(3) in the daemon implementation of glob, so names of directories will not have a trailing slash. This allows users to have filenames that can be used with other tools, such as rm. Add a new test to check this (based on RHBZ#1293271). A mild behaviour change is that users of the glob API now need to append the slash when building paths using its results.
