Hi, I found a behaviour of rsync I cannot explain.
1) rsync -vaS --delete-after --include-from=/etc/rsync.inc --exclude-from=/etc/rsync.ex / server:/ 2) rsync -vaS --relative --delete-after --include-from=/etc/rsync.inc --exclude-from=/etc/rsync.ex / server:/
I sync most of one server to another as a fallback server. I had the relative option first (dont know anymore why), then switched to the one without it recently. I found out that before were some dirs not synced correctly, especially some files and dirs not on the sending server were not deleted. The two lines above should do the same as I understand it because I sync from server1:/ to server2:/, so it may be the same if I use --relative or not.
Can someone explain this behaviour? That were really kind. Thanks. -- Klaus Löfflad http://tshirtshop.dyndns.org -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
