Summary: readlink_stat error results in deletion of mountpoints
Product: rsync
Version: 3.1.0
Platform: Sparc
OS/Version: Solaris
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: core
AssignedTo: way...@samba.org
ReportedBy: bugz...@andy-t.org
QAContact: rsync...@samba.org
I am trying to rsync Solaris non-global zone from the global running the
following command (from a
script):
rsync -aSzx --del --ignore-errors --stats \
--exclude "sc-gis03/root/proc/*" \
--exclude "sc-gis03/root/var/run/*" \
--exclude "sc-gis03/root/system/contract/process/*" \
boi-blade02:/zones/sc-gis03 /zones
where `sc-gis03' is a running Solaris zone to be copied.
The problem I run into is this. sc-gis03 has two NFS mounts. The mountpoints
are /docrep01 and
/backup01. From rsync perspective, they appear as:
/zones/sc-gis03/root/docrep01
/zones/sc-gis03/root/backup01
Since the two entries above are mountpoints, rsync does not have access to
them, and returns the
following errors:
rsync: readlink_stat("/zones/sc-gis03/root/docrep01") failed: Not owner (1)
rsync: readlink_stat("/zones/sc-gis03/root/backup01") failed: Not owner (1)
This is fine, nothing can be done about it. What seems to be wrong is that
rsync deletes these
directories in the destination, as can be seen from a verbose run:
deleting sc-gis03/root/docrep01/
deleting sc-gis03/root/backup01/
IMHO, if rsync cannot stat a file because it does not have permissions to do
so, it should just
leave it alone. In case you are wondering, my script captures those
`readlink_stat' errors, and
creates the directories after rsync exits, so next time the whole cycle is
repeated.
