Hello,
does anybody know what's the maximum file size (terabytes?) when using rsync
with options --checksum and / or --inplace?

rsync (with --checksum and / or --inplace) for big files with several / dozens
or terabyt

There is no mention of the concept of "transfer rule" in the rsync

The man page says "This option
