We are using Rsync version 2.6.8 protocol version 29 on a winNT box to backup a linux (RedHat 9.0) box (same version of rsync) and everynight a different file on the NT server is reported as being corrupt, there are no errors in the rsync logs on either side. NT Event log records:
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Ntfs
Event Category: Disk
Event ID: 55
Date: 12/05/2006
Time: 3:05:19 AM
User: N/A
Computer: [ Deleted ]
Description:
The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume TESTDATA.
For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
Data:
0000: 00 00 04 00 02 00 52
we use BrightStor ARCserve Backup as backup software on the NT server, it reports:
Unable to open file. (FILE=F:\database\base_currency\country_list.frm, EC=The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.)
The file reported is different every day, we have tried turning off the 'z' option, as that was causing an error when attempting to transfer large already compressed files but did not resolve this particular problem. We have noticed that the error does not occur on a FAT32 volume, is there a problem with rsync interacting with the NTFS?.
Thanks
Darrin.
