Hello, I am trying to move data from a 2TB hard drive to a 3TB drive and am having space issues. I am using:
rsync -aHAXv --delete --progress /mnt/olddrive/ /mnt/newdrive/ To copy the data from the old to the new. I noticed that this process tanked so I ended up running it for individual folders under the specific directories... for example: /mnt/olddrive/backup/pc/abccomputer/ /mnt/newdrive/backup/pc/abccomputer/ I have ran this process all weekend (I bash scripted it for all the folders) and then some and I came back to find that my entire hard drive is filled up. I thought by using the “H” option, it would just keep the hardlink and not have the files in two locations. What am I missing? What can I do to efficiently get the data copied from olddrive to newdrive without this problem?
