I've now got this working locally, but I need to be able to execute from a remote host.
This works on the source system:
But this does not when run from the remote host, since it appears the the batch is relative to the system where the rsync originates:
Is there an easy way to get this to execute correctly? My source system doesn't have direct access to the remote system. I must originate the connection from the remote system to the source.
Hi,
I've got a cronjob running daily creating backup files. How can I send that created file to a remote server & then delete it on my workstation to save space? The filename format is as follows: proj_bk_20070624_15h30, proj_bk_20070625_15h30, etc

Has anyone ever used rsync to copy files locally on one server? (in this case from one SAN volume to another).

Is rsync slower? Does it use additional overhead of the... (4 Replies)

I have files on the left which I want to copy to the right. Once the files are copied to the right, they are processed and then deleted. The next time rsync runs I dont want it to copy the same files again, it should only copy any new files to the right.

Hello
I tried rsync (version 3.0.7) on OpenServer 5.0.7.

Both versions do not work reliably, sometimes show errors and stop copying (sometimes works)

slack.conf(5) File Formats Manual slack.conf(5)NAME
slack.conf - configuration file for slack
DESCRIPTION
The file /etc/slack.conf contains configuration information for slack(8) and its backends. It should contain one keyword-value pair per
line, separated by an '=' sign. Keywords must consist solely of capital letters and underscores. Values may take any appropriate format,
but must not begin with a space. Comments start with '#', and all text from the '#' to the end of a line is ignored. Trailing whitespace
on lines is ignored. Empty lines or lines consisting of only whitespace and comments are ignored.
Valid keywords are:
SOURCE The master source for slack roles. It can be in one of four forms:
o /path/to/dir
Use a local directory.
o somehost:/path/to/dir
Use given directory on a remote host via rsync over SSH.
o rsync://somehost/module
Use module on a remote rsyncd server (directly over the network).
o somehost::module
Use the rsync daemon protocol over SSH to the given host. See "USING RSYNC-DAEMON FEATURES VIA A REMOTE-SHELL CONNECTION" in
rsync(1)
All forms of SOURCE are passed directly to rsync, so you can do things like add "user@" before the host on any remote forms. For
more about what rsync can do, see its manual page, of course.
For the last form, however, we do a little magic. rsync treats the last two forms equivalently, so we overload the last form by
automatically passing "-e ssh" to rsync when we see it. This hack lets us tell slack to use this nice feature of rsync just using
the SOURCE config option.
ROOT The root filesystem into which to install slack roles. Usually '/'.
ROLE_LIST
The location of the role list, which lists the roles to be installed by default on each host.
This can be a path relative to the source, or can be an entirely separate location if it starts with a slash or a hostname (option-
ally preceeded by user@).
CACHE A local cache directory, used as a local mirror of the SOURCE.
STAGE A local staging directory, used as an intermediate stage when installing files.
BACKUP_DIR
A directory in which to keep dated backups for rollbacks.
EXAMPLE
A typical file might look like this:
# slack.conf configuration file
SOURCE=slack-master:/slack # source is on a remote
# host named "slack-master"
ROLE_LIST=slack-master:/roles.conf
ROOT=/
CACHE=/var/cache/slack
STAGE=/var/lib/slack/stage
BACKUP_DIR=/var/lib/slack/backups
