Rsync Can I delete .NFS and .fuse files
Hello,
I have some files in a local directory and perform an rsync command with the files in a remote directory, Now when I checked the files in the local and the remote directory, I found some strange filetypes such as this: .nfs0000000001d0c8e000002ff2 , .fuse_hidden000014da00000001 etc etc, also some files ending in a ~ like filename.m~ or filename~
What is the use of these files ?
It is safe to delete these files from both local and remote directory ?

the --delete option says "delete files that don't exist on the sending side"
Does this mean and only mean that it will delete files from the DESTINATION that DON'T EXIST on the sending side? :confused: (2 Replies)

ropkg::rsync::logparser
RoPkg::Rsync::LogParser(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation RoPkg::Rsync::LogParser(3pm)
NAME
RoPkg::Rsync::LogParser - a rsync log parser class
SYNOPSIS
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warning;
sub main {
my $lp = new RoPkg::Rsync::LogParser( type => 'client' );
$lp->Parse('/tmp/debian-log.txt');
}
main();
Short description
RoPkg::Rsync::LogParser is a class used to parse (for the moment) client side rsync logs. Using this class you can extract the transfered
files, symlinks created, directories, total number of files, transfered bytes, speed of transfer etc. LogParser support list filter trough
probes (used by many projects to verify the mirrors). The primary use of this class is inside Simba, but can be used without problems in
any other project who needs a rsync client log parser.
METHODS
new(hash)
Constructor of the class. When creating a new class instance you must provide the type of log: client or server . For the moment only the
client parsing routines are defined.
Log($raw_log)
Get/Set the raw rsync log. With no parameters, the get behaviour is selected. If a parameter is present (and valid) the method acts as a
Set method.
Probes(@probes_list)
Get/Set the raw probes list. If no parameter is present, the method returns the number of probes defined (0 if none). If a list of probes
is given, the list is added to the existing list of probes.
Parse($filename)
Parse a rsync client log. If no filename is specified, the method parses the log previsiously set with Log() method. Please take extra care
with the filename. If it does not exists, or is not a file a exception will be raised (Param::Wrong and File::Open).
Files()
In scalar context returns the number of transfered files (filtered by probes list). In list context, returns the list of transfered files.
RealFiles()
In scalar context returns the number of transfered files. In list context, returns the list of transfered files.
Deleted()
In scalar context returns the number of deleted files (filtered by probes list). In list context, returns the list of deleted files.
RealDeleted()
In scalar context returns the number of deleted files. In list context, returns the list of deleted files.
Speed()
Returns the speed (as reported by rsync [in bytes/sec]) of the transfer.
Size()
Returns the size of the synced content.
TransfData()
Returns the total number of bytes transfered during the sync session
Symlinks()
In scalar context returns the number of symlinks (filtered by probes list). In list context, returns the list of symlinks.
RealSymlinks()
In scalar context returns the number of symlinks. In list context, returns the list of symlinks.
PREREQUISITES
RoPkg::Utils requires perl 5.008 or later and RoPkg::Exceptions class. From CPAN, you need the Scalar::Util module. At build time
Test::More is required for tests (if you don't plan to use the tests ignore this dependency).
