Hi,
I have remote storage for my family's image collection, which I sync to
using rsync.
I wonder now what happens if on my local drive a small number of sectors get
corrupted. Rsync (if using the "-c" option) will figure the local file was
changed and transfer that (faulty) change to the remote side.
I'd love to do something like this:
1. Checksum all files and store them (file).
2. Note down checksum of checksum db from 1.
3. Sync everything (including checksum db from 1.) to remote.
4. Upon new sync make sure that
- remote and local checksum db are identical (if not decide on noted
checksum which one to take)
- new files are transfered to remote
- local files not matching their stored checksum are (upon asking the
user)
either transfered to remote (if willingly changed) or restored
from remote
- update checksum db and sync it
Is something like this already implemented? I know unison and it might do
the trick, but I can't have it installed remotely ...
Thanks for any input, Joh
