We are currently using Rsync (with cygwin) to propagate
static files from a preview server (Windows) to our live servers (Windows) on
demand. Unfortunately, because the live servers are *live*, inevitably some of the files we mean
to update are in use and therefore locked by the windows filesystem. Since they
are locked, they are not updated, and our servers get out of synch. Does anyone know of a way this locking can be
overridden ? – is it possible to ‘force’ updates ? it is
important that all live servers have identical filesystems. There is an option to bring down each server, update
the relevant directories, and bring the server back up: but this is highly
undesirable. Updates are daily at least, and sometimes may occur half-a-dozen
times a day. TIA, Michael.
