As an aside to this, part of the problem I've been having is the transfer timing out/getting interrupted during a particular large file (1G, new file, 2-3 hours if it works).
So I've been experimenting with --partial and --partial-dir=.rsync-partial which weren't working. It appears to work at first - if the transfer is interrupted, the partial file is correctly saved in the named directory. Then if I run the script again, it deletes the partial file before starting again. I found that I needed to also specify --delete-delay to avoid deleting the partial file before it's used. Is this "known", because it isn't implied (as I read it) by the --partial-dir section in the man page ? -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
