Hello Rsync PRO´s, i´m satisfied with the rsync features...never seen a better replication tool....!! ;-)
But i have some problems...:-( OK, here me installation: - one Compac Proliant ML370 with cached SCSI HDDs and 1,2GHz and 1gb RAM... on this machine we have the Rsync deamon runnig to export the data we want to replicate - now we have 68 other NAS machines in our branch offices and this NAS machines are connecting to the ProLiant server to replicate the date it holds - approx. amount of files on the Proliant server = 26000 Files (~6gb) Here´s the problem: - the Proliant server HDDs are overloaded when more than 3 NAS machines creating the filelists before they start to replicate. - if all 68 machines are connecting it takes 4 hours (!) before all machines got their filelists and start to replicate :-( possible solutions (except upgrading the cache memory of the HDD controller)??? has somebody a idea? can we precompile the filelist and hold it somewhere? what else can we do....? i have no idea anymore but: i would like to thank you already for helpfull hints and tips!! greetings from germany Stephan
