DO NOT REPLY [Bug 3491] throttle disk IO during filelist/directory parsing
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3491 a...@haveland.com changed: What|Removed |Added CC||a...@haveland.com --- Comment #4 from a...@haveland.com 2010-08-19 07:26 CST --- Is rsync still being maintained? I support this feature too, and the ability to request that the sender does not cache files. My webserver is a social networking site, and has a deep hierarchy of image files eg, ~/999/999/999/file.jpg with a parallel tree for server generated thumbnails. This is located on a separate device from the main system (reiserfs,noatime of course!). Rsync is amazing - I use it to back up the server over cable, but the problem is that scanning 50Gb of files in 300,000+ directories hits the server hard, takes a long time, and saturates linux's cache with files that will rarely be used. The option to sleep between dir reads would be useful, although this would dramatically increase run time! The most useful thing for me would be an option to tell rsync to tell the kernel to leave the server's present cache untouched. Is this possible? If not, then I think I'll have to write something to query the database and calculate deltas from the local copy and sync on a per file basis. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

DO NOT REPLY [Bug 7629] Blank filter file option to ignore whole directory
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7629 way...@samba.org changed: What|Removed |Added Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution||WORKSFORME --- Comment #1 from way...@samba.org 2010-08-19 09:54 CST --- The easiest way to accomplish this is to make that signal file be name .rsync-filter, put - * into it, and use the -F option for the copy. Rsync will then obey any filter rules it encounters in the .rsync-filter files it finds sprinkled around in the hierarchy. This idiom will leave an empty directory, though. If you want to avoid that, you'd need to put - /dirname into the .rsync-filter file of the parent directory (the slash anchors the exclude in the current directory so it doesn't filter a similarly named file/dir in another directory). If you want to hide the parent-dir .rsync-fiter files, you can repeat the -F option. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

Either add a trailing slash to the source arg or remove dir-name from the destination arg. If your username indeed has an '@' in it, you can just specify it prior to the 2nd @ for the hostname: rsync -ah /src/ u...@host1@host2:/dest/ However, since your above command results in an extra -l user option from rsync, I assume it's just overriding the -l option you've specified and your username doesn't actually contain the '@'. Note that the use of ssh is the default these days, so you can probably drop the -e and its arg. ..wayne.. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

Check/compare modtime before deleting?
I need to keep two identical copies of files on my desktop and laptop, so I want to use the -delete option. But I don't want to delete files that are created after last sync. Is there a way to keep files with modtime later than a file of a different name (a flag file created before each sync) when using the -delete option? Thanks and I appreciate any help. -Chris -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

DO NOT REPLY [Bug 7633] New: add support for include/includedir config file directives
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7633 Summary: add support for include/includedir config file directives Product: rsync Version: 3.1.0 Platform: Other OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P3 Component: core AssignedTo: way...@samba.org ReportedBy: sa...@askneil.com QAContact: rsync...@samba.org The samba configuration has support for including an external configuration file into the smb.conf file. rsync does not support this functionality. I'm requesting this functionality so rsync server configurations can be modularly changed without having to edit the main file, by dropping other config files into a directory and having the main config file reference them. At some level this is just syntactic sugar: I could just combine all the other files together at run time. But it would be convenient if rsync provided the functionality natively. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

does rsync work in lockstep? parallel could improve high latency performance
Just curious if the protocol sends a request and waits for a response, or whether it can multiplex multiple requests on a single connection. This could improve performance over high latency links, if a lot of time is spent waiting for the response (i.e. when the hashes match). -- Travis is an organic computer peripheral.

Re: does rsync work in lockstep? parallel could improve high latency performance
Oh, and if it buffers requests sent to its STDIN, that's fine. To actually complete requests in parallel, you'd need a multithread or multiprocess app, and that's complicated. The proper term for what I'm suggesting is probably pipelining. -- Travis is an organic computer peripheral.

Yes, and rsync does it. That's why it runs two processes (generator and receiver) in the destination. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.

No. As soon as you have one side making arbitrary changes that you don't want to clobber, you need a stateful change-propagation tool such as unison (http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/unison/). -- Matt -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
