Hi
I am running rsyncs between a raid attached server and a nas device, which works fine.
I am using the --delete to ensure that its kept in sync. And running a log at the end of the sync for me to check. this i am running from a cron
Problem is if the part of the raid fails on the server the sync still happens resulting the data being wiped on the nas. Is there a way of writing a script that checks that the source data is valid and available before allowing the sync to run.
Regards
Treds

It's enough to use [CODE] tags for command lines, not for whole posts. And split the command lines if they become too long.

I can't find a source rpm for a particular tool that I'm trying to modify. I can only get a hold of the noarch and tar.bz2. Can I modify either one of these and re-package them as a noarch.rpm? (2 Replies)

SYNC(8) BSD System Manager's Manual SYNC(8)NAME
sync -- force completion of pending disk writes (flush cache)
SYNOPSIS
sync
DESCRIPTION
The sync utility can be called to ensure that all disk writes have been completed before the processor is halted in a way not suitably done
by reboot(8) or halt(8). Generally, it is preferable to use reboot(8) or halt(8) to shut down the system, as they may perform additional
actions such as resynchronizing the hardware clock and flushing internal caches before performing a final sync.
The sync utility utilizes the sync(2) function call.
SEE ALSO fsync(2), sync(2), syncer(4), halt(8), reboot(8)HISTORY
A sync utility appeared in Version 4 AT&T UNIX.
