Hi, I was trying to make a mirror backup of a folder in my machine with the following command: rsync -avh --delete /source/ /destination But the extra files that where on "destination" didn't got deleted. Where as doing: rsync -avh --delete /source/ /destination/ worked as expected. I wonder if this is correct, or it shouldn't be like that. -------------- next part

When I'm running "rsync --compare-dest" on a local Linux volume (ext4) it works as expected (duplicate files not created) however when same commands with same options are run on NTFS USB drive (in my scenario below mounted to /share/external/sdt5) all the files are copied regardless if they have been updated or not. I have spent many hours trying to figure out what could be wrong and

On Solaris 10, dtrace''s cwd yields a full path name: # dtrace -n ''syscall:::entry { printf("%s", cwd); }'' 0 1685 pollsys:entry / 0 1381 write:entry /data/homes/guest/rdm ... On OSX, it yields just a directory name: # dtrace -n ''syscall:::entry { printf("%s", cwd); }'' 0 17596 read:entry rdm

I brought this up on the list years ago and was told it's a feature, not a bug. Even if some other GNU or Linux commands have this "feature", it still violates the principle of least surprise. It's also pretty hard to discover because a null argument is literally invisible. Joe On 4/17/19 9:54 AM, just subscribed for rsync-qa from bugzilla via rsync wrote: >

Hello Syslinux ML, According to the documentation, the following command: COM32 menu.c32 file1.cfg file2.cfg loads both, file1.cfg and file2.cfg, using menu.c32. Is there any way to simultaneously load those cfg files AND change the CWD (similarly as the second argument of the CONFIG directive does) while still using the "COM32 menu.c32" command? TIA, Ady.

All, So I''ve discovered that when running on FastCGI with Apache and the working directory for the process is actually the "public" directory under RAILS_ROOT. Is there a way to force the current working directory to be RAILS_ROOT for the FastCGI procs so that file manipulation would then be done relative to RAILS_ROOT? Or should I just make sure that all of my paths are

Hi, rcmd requires a temporary directory identified by the value of the environment variable "TMPDIR". Unfortunately, if the directory name has a space in it, rcmd errors out. For example, the standard temporary file "TMP" for xp is like: c:\documents and settings\r_user\local settings\temp If TMPDIR is defined via the Windows/XP "standard" way, i.e., set

In our environment home directories are auto-mounted via /home/<user> including on the server provided mail. Within the various mail services though we try to isolate and override with local /mail/home/<user> Works well except that dovecot still wants to cd to the real home triggering a useless and potentially hindering automount when it invokes the imap or pop3 process specified by

I am creating three u32 filters with different dst addresses. When I delete one of those filters, all three are deleted. Why all 3 filters are deleted even though in ''tc filter del'' command I give exactly all parameters of filters creation. Is this expected behaviour, that all other filters are deleted also ? Thanks Yakov Lerner Here is sample script that reproduces how

I've looked around for a bug report on this problem and haven't seen one, so I apologize if this has already been discussed. I have a homegrown script which uses rsync to maintain daily backups of roughly twenty Redhat Linux systems running RH 7.2, 7.3, AS 3, and AS 4. As there are files with multiple links on the source systems, it is necessary to call rsync using the -H (--hard-links)

Dear Rsync, I am seeing the following rsync error messages and I am wondering if it is a sign of trouble, expected behavior, or a bug: rsync: failed to hard-link /Volumes/backups/vanguard/backup.0/dev/agpgart with dev/agpgart: Invalid argument (22) rsync: failed to hard-link /Volumes/backups/vanguard/backup.0/dev/apm_bios with dev/apm_bios: Invalid argument (22) rsync: failed to hard-link

Hi, I'm not sure if it's rsync or Cygwin problem, but most probably both.. Here is a short description: I run rsync daemon on Windows machine (either latest cwRsync or Cygwin versions) and synchronize a Windows directory to Linux server as root: linux# rsync -avH --numeric-ids 10.0.0.1::test /export/test1/ receiving file list ... done created directory /export/test1 ./ 43524353.upd

Hi All, I am presently doing a small POC with rsync for incremental backup and restore starategies. I have come up with certain question down the line, can anyone help me with the explanation.

But that does give me an idea. I guess I could do that on the source, then sync the flag file over. rsync -avH ${other_gubbins} / user at remote.machine:/dest/ && touch /etc/donefile
