similar to: overwrite read-only file with inplace option

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

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 ---

Hi, I have written a 'smallish' patch to implement the --inplace option as discussed on this mailing list at various points in the past. It makes a small modification to the sender algorithm so that it won't ask the receiver to relocate blocks from earlier in the file when running with the --inplace option. I would appreciate any testing and feedback people can provide! I

I worked this out over the weekend. I appreciate that using temporary variables would be simpler but I think this makes for quite readable code: # in RProfile.site inplace <- function (f, arg=1) eval.parent(call("<-",substitute(f)[[arg+1]], f),2) # examples in code inplace(foo[bar,baz] *2) # or inplace(paste(foo[bar,baz], 1:10)) # or inplace(sub("blah",

I'm trying to rsync a very large (62gig) file from one machine to another as part of a nightly backup. If the file does not exist at the destination, it takes about 2.5 hours to copy in my environment. But, if the file does exist and --inplace is specified, and the file contents differ, rsync either is so significantly slowed as to take more than 30 hours (the longest I've let an

Hi, I frequently rsync larger files from my rented server to my PC. Sometimes I have to stop the rsync process and restart it a while after (e.g. I'm shutting down my PC for the night, ...), sometimes several times per source file. I like the two following features: (1) The unfinished files should stay in a own directory (I call it '.dl'). I'm talking here about the 'temp'

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Yes, but there are issues to keep in mind... Normally --link-dest is used to keep previous copies (to make a backup system) and the target directory is always empty. In this mode - --inplace and --append-verify would be irrelevant since rsync will always be either making a link or writing an entire new file. However, if you have an unstable link

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. I've tried

Hi, I recently came across a situation where "rsync --inplace" performs very poorly. If both the source and destination files contain long sequences of identical blocks, but not necessarily in the same location, the sender can spend an inordinate amount of CPU time finding matching blocks. In my case, I came across this problem while backing up multi-hundred-gigabyte MySQL database

Hi all, >From the manpage of rsync, I can see the following descriptions: --inplace The option implies --partial (since an interrupted transfer does not delete the file) So I do the following testings on the `--inplace' and `--partial' for resuming a file with the following steps: 1- rsync ftp.cn.debian.org::debian/dists/wheezy/main/binary-amd64/

Hi. This is bug report and simultaneously urgent asking for help. I am trying to write my rsync wrapper script, which will create minutely snapshots of my data using --link-dest. I want this script to be robust, it should work even if I do suspend/hibernate/reboot without notifying the script about this actions, it should work if I make hard-reset of the computer and if I disconnect network.
