Hello list, I'll first describe my set up:
server1 : live server server2 : backup server3 : backup of the backup so the data set is copied in this order server1->server2->server3 they are not done at the same time so there would be no collisions. I use this shell script to back up: for i in a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z `seq 0 9`; do /usr/local/bin/rsync -a -z -W --delete /mailhome/$i/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/mailhome/$i done question one would be does this look correct? now here is the heart of the problem: on server1 the partition is 121G on server2 it's 110G on server3 it's 118G so I assume I have multiple problems here. I don't see --progress as being usable in my case since I have such a large amount of files, how can I debug what the differences are between these 3 body of files that doesn't involve actually checking them individually? I basically want to be informed of errors of any kind (io, permissions) as my logging of stderr/stdout doesn't show anything, which makes me think many the problem is my command line but it sure looks ok to me. I'm using version 2.6.3 of rsync btw.
