Hello, I'm trying to break up my rsync process by separating a directory tree into multiple rsync processes because I'm witnessing some errors trying to rsync large directory trees on Windows machines. After breaking up the tree I tried to rsync each individual directory starting from the bottom directory on up using the command:
foreach ($array as $directory){ /* $array = list of directories gathered from the larger directory I'm trying to rsync */ rsync -vz -e ssh username@hostname:/src/$directory/ /dst/$directory/ } But this comes up with the error: client: nothing to do: perhaps you need to specify some filenames or the --recursive option? which is exactly what I'm trying to avoid. I've also tried: rsync -vz -e ssh username@hostname:/src/$directory/* /dst/$directory/. but that states that /src/$directory/* does not exist. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to perfom this task? Thanks for your time. Sincerely, Mark J. de Jong ,.,.,.,...,.,,.,..,.,....,.,..,.,..,.,.,,.,...,..,,...
