Hello, I have very-large file to transfer 10 GB and I have problems to transfer it if connection drops often.
When I don't use --partial option, It will compare file with version on server and transfer difference but what if it only comes to 99% and connection drops. I will lost that 99% part and will need to start again. When I use --partial option when transfer is interrupted full version of file in servers folder is replaced with partial version of file. This becomes problem if transfer is interrupted in beginning, I will stuck with file of for example 1GB or less and next rsync will need to transfer the other part which is now 9GB because my server version of file is only 1GB now. Does anyone knows solution for this ? It would be good that partial version of file is kept on server and that transfer is resumed from that point. Server version should not be overwritten until partial download reaches 100%. Regards, Ante
