Linus, I was looking at your 1.6 GB rsync transfers, the "initial copy" without that file on the destination is faster than that of using "--inplace" and not using inplace option. I also came across the same results but still I am trying with some other datafiles to again confirm.
All the tests i have conducted so far makes me feel like if you remove the destination files (oracle datafiles) and then do rysnc it is much faster. I will post back again with results after one more test. we have a 20TB database files that needs to be transferred to remote server and then create a database using control file so I am desperate of trying all options that would suffice my need to get this done in less amount of time. Thanks, lsk. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Rsync-help-needed...-t1170765.html#a3215145 Sent from the Samba - rsync forum at Nabble.com. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
