Re: Rsync to a Remote NAS

2012-04-12 Thread Joachim Otahal (privat)
This is like mounting the remote drive via samba and then do a sync, this is like doing a normal copy job without the deltra transfer benefits of rsync. If at all possible you should run an rsync daemon on the NAS box and then run the rsync command on the other side of the VPN. rsync uses port

I know from a lot of NAS boxes that they tend to use their internal time to stamp files instead of the time given by a copy job. The easiest way to test is to deliberately set the time off by a few hours on the box you monted the stuff on, the NAS and netapp (or the

PS: Another (ugly) workaround: Use two linux boxes, place then both on each side of the slow line. One side having the NAS mounted + running rsync server, the other having the netapp mounted. Then sync between those two linux boxes. Even if you have to use -c or --ignore-times the full read
