I'd normally expect rsync to skip over open files with a warning; you may be running into a DeltaCopy bug, or it may react badly to certain semantics for open files. The "proper" way to copy open files is using Shadow Copies, but rsync presents an interesting conundrum, because the shadow copy has to be available before rsync is started, so running an rsync service probably won't work (unless you go to the trouble or writing your own rsync-compatible, non-Cygwin, VSS-capable service, I guess. DeltaCopy is not such a thing.) At any rate, there are at least two VSS/rsync based solutions, but I'm not aware of an rsync service working with open files at all. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
