Operating Systems AIX rsync error "file has vanished" Post 302497812 by omonoiatis9 on Friday 18th of February 2011 05:48:50 AM

rsync error "file has vanished"

Hello,

I am using rsync to synchronize some files from one server to other servers.
When i take a look at the output file that it produces i noticed that for some files returns the message
Code:
file has vanished: "<filename>"

what might be the cause of that? do i do something wrong or should i fix something on my script?

this is what i use:
first of all i run this script on AIX version 5.3.9 and rsync version 2.6.2.

this is what my script executes:
Code:
/usr/bin/rsync -rgoptvz -e ssh /<dir>/*  <remote_server>:/<dir>/

i did some search in the web but i the only thing i find about this problem is that rsync shows this problem if the filenames include "strange characters" for the system.
but clearly this is not the case in my problem because i have filenames like:
Code:
bkdbopi.sql ,
sem_beoycomtmp2.sql,.......

can someone help me about this?

thank you

rdiff(1)						      General Commands Manual							  rdiff(1)

NAME
rdiff - compute and apply signature-based file differences SYNOPSYS
rdiff [options] signature old-file signature-file rdiff [options] delta signature-file new-file delta-file rdiff [options] patch basis-file delta-file new-file USAGE
You can use rdiff to update files, much like rsync does. However, unlike rsync, rdiff puts you in control. There are three steps to updating a file: signature, delta, and patch. DESCRIPTION
In every case where a filename must be specified, - may be used instead to mean either standard input or standard output as appropriate. Be aware that if you do this, you'll need to terminate your options with -- or rdiff will think you are passing it an empty option. RETURN VALUE
0 for successful completion, 1 for environmental problems (file not found, invalid options, IO error, etc), 2 for a corrupt file and 3 for an internal error or unhandled situation in librsync or rdiff. SEE ALSO
librsync(3) AUTHOR
Martin Pool <mbp@samba.org> The original rsync algorithm was discovered by Andrew Tridgell. rdiff development has been supported by Linuxcare, Inc and VA Linux Systems. $Date: 2002/01/25 21:25:34 $ rdiff(1)
