Rsync Without A Checksum Check? Centos 7

Hi all

I got two questions about rsync:

1. I am copying a huge dir with lots of files, how do I see the overall progress? I put in the progress flag but now it show the progress each individual files.

2. Is rsync slower than cp? I used CP to copy over a NFS mount and that took about an hour. I am using rsync to copy over the same mount over the same NFS and so far it has taken 10 minutes to copy 7G. I got over 150G of stuff.

I just used rsync -avh --progress ...

Thanks

I am trying to write a simple test script that executes a single rsync call. Once I get the syntax right, the script will be expanded to incorporate several rsync instructions to save me time.

I'm using a Cygwin Terminal on Windows 7 to run Rsync.

The script is called "backup" and I call it from the cygwin terminal using "./backup". Have used chmod to make it executable.

When I execute the rsync instruction as a standalone instruction at terminal prompt, the file copies to the target folder perfectly.

However, when I try and drop the same instruction into a script, it copies the file over from it's original file name "mvi_1840.mov" to a file with the name "." -- literally a single period. I can rename the file to a .mov file and it works fine but naturally, I don't want to have to do this.

The one other thing I will mention is that the file is located in the /home/"username" directory in cygwin vs /bin. But I would not think that this would make a difference.

I have pasted the contents of the script file below:
Code:

#!/bin/bash
    rsync.exe -rltDvP --exclude "System Volume Information" --exclude
 "RECYCLER" --exclude=\$RECYCLE.BIN --delete "/cygdrive/c/users/<USERNAME>
/desktop/mvi_1840.mov" "/cygdrive/c/users/<USERNAME>/desktop/test/"

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Hi
I am trying to send lakh of small(JPG,PDF) files from one server to another. So am using rsync which helps differential copy, but when using it getting error as /usr/bin/rsync: Argument list too long.

Kindly help, other than rsync if any option is also there kindly update.

Thanks in advance

hi experts

I am running a large rsync job, but the exclude list doesn't seem to be working:

The rsync log shows this file as being copied over
/a/test 4.11/Logs/2015-03-03_PID_1234/x.y

but the exclude file clearly includes this line:
/a/test*/Logs/*PID*

So shouldn't it have been excluded?
Thanks

Please forgive me but I'm a little new to Red Hat (RHEL 5). I'm using rysnc to backup critical data and to a second disk; here is what I'm typing at the command line rsync -rvgal /data/disk1/share /data/backup/share. It appears that the softlinks are not transfered to the backup drive and some of the links point to data not located in the source folder (/data/share). After reading the rsync man page I was a little confused about the L option (vs the l option). In order to ensure that the linked files are moved should I type the below:

rsync -rvgaL /data/disk1/share /data/backup/share

A million thanks,

I am using Rsync to backup files to a another machine, the users on my fileserver do not exist on the backup server so Rsync throws errors about the permissions. It copies the files fine but I want to get rid of the errors and have Rsync ignore the permissions when backing up.

/backup is a mounted ftp directory

Below is the current command and output:
Code:

I tried the flag to adding the no flag to -p but it still didn't work, see below:

System Info:

I have normal user in CentOS 7 whose name is "mostafa" (the name of the account).

I naturally have another user called root with all privileges. User "mostafa" is put into sudoers file, too.

The OS is installed in VmWare, so the system is all mine.

Problem:

Now I create a file with touch file.sh and put a command in it, but when I want to run it with Code:

sudo ./file.sh

, an error is shown that the command Code:

./file.sh

does not exist. But if I Code:

 sudo chmod 777 ./file.sh

then it gets run. My question is that, why should I use Code:

chmod 777

when I myself have created the file, and I am in sudoers.

Can anyone explain me why shuold I still use Code:

sudo chmod 777

when the creator of the file is me.

I'm preparing a rsync script to backup from one machine to another through ssh. For this I'm successful with the following:

IP=150.163.49.15
ORIGIN=/home
DESTINATION=samba

rsync -avzP --exclude={cristiano,marcelo} root@$IP:$ORIGIN $DESTINATION/

I would like to improve it, moving the exclude part to a variable also. I've unsuccessfully tried this:

IP=150.163.49.15
ORIGIN=/home
DESTINATION=samba
EXCLUDE={cristiano,marcelo}

rsync -avzP --exclude=$EXCLUDE root@$IP:$ORIGIN $DESTINATION/

What is wrong with the EXCLUDE syntax?

hello guys, just want to ask I have files on the server running SUSE 11 and i rsync to My WD Cloud via NFS.

but i notice some it shows some error like "This operation is not permitted"

I had used rsync -av parameters.

But when I used rsync -rltuv parameters it seems to work fine.

Why rsync -av parameter is used there are errors even though I set on WD My Cloud shared folder as the permissions as 777?

Thanks for any input.
