Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers rsync problem - space character in filename Post 53068 by dkaplowitz on Sunday 4th of July 2004 09:06:37 AM

Can you post the command you're running to rsync these files? (And I'm assuming you're using rsync on FreeBSD and not one on Cygwin on Windows or something, but if I'm wrong post that too). I personally haven't encountered this problem using rsync from one type of UNIX box to another, so, assuming you're not using some strange switch, I'm wondering if there's some other problem causing this.

       This script is used to move the content of a Xen virtual machine (VM) managed with dtc-xen to another Xen server of the same type.  The	VM
       destination will first be prepared, then the local VM will be shut down, then it's content will be transfered over using rsync.

       Note that this is NOT a live migration, and down time of approximatively the time needed for the rsync will occure.

PARAMETERS

       LOCAL_VPS_ID The DTC-Xen id of the VM, from 00 to 99.

       DESTINATION_HOSTNAME Destination Xen server hostname to migrate to.

       DEST_VPS_ID Destination DTC-Xen id of the VM, from 00 to 99.

EXAMPLE

       dtc-xen_migrate 19 alpha.example.com 21

       This will migrate the content of xen19 on the local machine to the destination server alpha.example.com using xen21 as VM name.
