 I was asking because I'm responsible for our backups. The
 current solution with rsync works nicely. While the RAID storage
 also monitor the HD's SMART state I was still wondering
 about a way to detect otherwise unknown data corruption.

I run rsync inside of dirvish (www.dirvish.org) for automated
backups.  I also run osiris (osiris.shmoo.com) which scans for
modified files, both checking the metadata and a hash of the 
actual data, finding all changes relative to a database on a
central osiris server.

We already have a backup system that creates incremental backups
as well as mirroring the file server as well as the backups to a
second RAID. I think the osiris is a bit overkill for our application.
But thanks for the info.

Re: PATCH for 2.6.9 to fix logging of daemon stats

2007-09-20 Thread Julian Pace Ross

Hi Wayne,

I'm using 2.6.9 with the daemon-stats.patch you had send a few months back 
(attached).


I have noticed something strange though:

I ran a dry run WITH the --exclude-from=FILE argument:
sent 39440 bytes  received 22 bytes  15784.80 bytes/sec
total size is 569895385  speedup is 14441.62
(Thats approx 569 MB total size)

...followed immediately by a dry run WITHOUT the --exclude-from=FILE 
argument:

sent 1576836 bytes  received 126502 bytes  25614.11 bytes/sec
total size is 30053499099  speedup is 17643.88
(Thats approx 30GB total size)

The exclude-from list contains files that amount to a few GB, but definitely 
not to bring down to 569MB.. so that value in the first case is definitely 
wrong. Has there been a patch for this?


Thanks again

Julian

I may be wrong, but it seems that when total size is more than
 bytes (int32), the total size is still displayed wrongly in
the daemon logs when the daemon is the receiver.


What version are you talking about?  The CVS version has had this fixed
for quite some time now (using write_varlong(), which handles 64-bit
numbers).

Re: error in IPC Code (code 14) at main.c(669) [receiver=2.6.9cvs]

2007-09-20 Thread Suresh Kumar

Hi,
I got the issue solved after doing some analysis..

I am not closing a file handle in one case and the same process is invoking
rsync command.. In the long run the process is running out of file
descriptors and causing the failure..

 Hi,
 
 I am using rsync 2.6.9 and recently I got a error with the setup. I
 searched in the forums but I couldn't find much clues on this. Once I
 restarted the rsync daemon and rerunning the job didn't gave any errors
 further. I also tried to reproduce the issue for much details. But I
 couldn't do that even after hours. 
 
  
 
 The rsync log says 
 
  
 
 opening tcp connection to 172.21.3.148 port 874
 
 opening connection using --server --sender -vvulgtprxz --timeout=38400
 --safe-links . job_27825 
 
 receiving file list ... 
 
 23 files to consider
 
 rsync: pipe failed in do_recv: Too many open files (24)
 
 rsync error: error in IPC code (code 14) at main.c(669)
 [receiver=2.6.9cvs]  
 
  
 
  
 
 If anybody has already faced similar kind error let me know what was the
 issue and how this has been suppressed.
 
  
 
 Regards,
 
 Suresh
