I'm trying to make backups with rsync with the --list-dest option.
My first backup is made like this: rsync -azR --delete -e ssh --exclude-from=./exclude.lst /tmp/test [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/backup/backup-nelly-2007-04-17-12-34-26/ Without touching any of the files which were backed up, I launch a new backup with this command: rsync -azR --delete -e ssh --exclude-from=./exclude.lst --link-dest=/tmp/backup/nelly-2007-04-17-12-34-26 /tmp/test [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/backup/backup-nelly-2007-04-17-12-34-33/ I had expected all files in the second backup to be hard links to the first backup files, but this does not seem to be the case: ls -1 -i backup-nelly*/tmp/test/testfile 10286511 backup-nelly-2007-04-17-12-34-26/tmp/test/testfile 10286738 backup-nelly-2007-04-17-12-34-33/tmp/test/testfile Both client and server side are using rsync 2.6.9 protocol version 29. What am I doing wrong, or is this simply not supported? -- Frederik -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
