Hi All... I use rsync to backup most of my servers to an offsite co-located server. I've been using this setup for about a month or so now and have been generally pleased with the operation as a whole.
But one thing bothers me: I use the following command to actually do the transfers: rsync -ae ssh --stats --delete /source/path offsite.server.name:/destination/ Which then in turn spits out something like this to my log file: ================================================================ rsync[23169] (sender) heap statistics: arena: 17339064 (bytes from sbrk) ordblks: 509 (chunks not in use) smblks: 2 hblks: 2 (chunks from mmap) hblkhd: 1294336 (bytes from mmap) usmblks: 0 fsmblks: 80 uordblks: 17180952 (bytes used) fordblks: 158112 (bytes free) keepcost: 132840 (bytes in releasable chunk) Number of files: 161530 Number of files transferred: 327 Total file size: 97936829135 bytes Total transferred file size: 945709165 bytes Literal data: 741315984 bytes Matched data: 204393181 bytes File list size: 3446549 Total bytes written: 745547229 Total bytes read: 1090478 wrote 745547229 bytes read 1090478 bytes 87035.93 bytes/sec total size is 97936829135 speedup is 131.17 ================================================================ The problem is: I don't know exactly how much it transferred offsite. Can someone please explain the output shown above to me...or point me to a site that can. I've searched Google, the man page, and the documentation and nothing can tell me what this information means. Thanks in advance... -- Kevin L.
