Hi

I have been using rsync for the past few days and would vouch for it anytime.However i am unable to find the total size of files being transferred.

The output of rsync looks something like this:

sent 2.92M bytes received 90.75K bytes 6.78K bytes/sec
total size is 6.27G speedup is 2079.86

Can somebody explain what this means?
Does this mean that 2.9 Mb of data was sent? If so what is that received for?

Hi,

Below could be helpful

rsync -avpLrRt --stats $LOCATION $DESTIP::$DESTPATH

This should show of how and what the data was transferred. The output would be something like below.

----------------------------------------------------------------
Rsync Location /export/Dumps/A.dump.new
building file list ... done
/export/Dumps/A.dump.new

Number of files: 3
Number of files transferred: 1
Total file size: 9019392 bytes
Total transferred file size: 9019392 bytes
Literal data: 34944 bytes
Matched data: 8984448 bytes
File list size: 142
File list generation time: 0.001 seconds
File list transfer time: 0.000 seconds
Total bytes sent: 75394
Total bytes received: 60430

sent 75394 bytes received 60430 bytes 54329.60 bytes/sec
total size is 9019392 speedup is 66.40


----------------------------------------------------------------


For decription of each option would suggest to use man.

Cheers mate.

Thanks Immortal. That was just what i was looking for. The "--stats" option was right in front of me,but i tended to overlook it. Thanks again.
