What rsync does can also be done by star by running something like: umount /mnt fssnap -F ufs -d /export/nfs rm /export/home/EXPORT-NFS.snap sync sleep 10 echo > /tmp/S.$$ svcadm disable svc:/network/nfs/server mount -r `fssnap -F ufs -o backing-store=/export/home/EXPORT-NFS.snap /export/nfs` /mnt svcadm enable svc:/network/nfs/server star bs=1m fs=256m -c -xdev -sparse -acl -link-dirs level=1 -cumulative dumpdate=/tmp/S.$$ fs-name=/export/nfs - wtardumps tardumps=/etc/td-copy -C /mnt . | \ star bs=1m fs=256m -xpU -no-fsync -restore -time -C /export/nfs2 star supports enhanced file meta data, what does rsync?
