Summary: rsync warning: some files vanished Product: rsync Version: 3.0.9 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P5 Component: core AssignedTo: way...@samba.org ReportedBy: toralf.foers...@gmx.de QAContact: rsync...@samba.org Today I got this message - for the first time as far I can remember : rsync warning: some files vanished before they could be transferred (code 24) at main.c(1052) [sender=3.0.9] It happens at an almost stable Gentoo with kernel 3.3.3, booted from an external USB disk. The rsync backup's from that external USB disk to another luks-encrypted USB disk using these parameters : --archive --cvs-exclude --delete --delete-excluded --devices --include-from=/include.list --exclude-from=/exclude.list --itemize-changes --link-dest=$REF BTW it was the first time, that I accessed the backup disk not directly as /dev/sdc1, instead I used /dev/disk/by-uuid/<uuid> I do the backup nearly daily, so with the given $REF (the directory from the day before) rsync mostly has to make hard links at the external USB disk. FWIW the system was under load (~5-6), b/c I run in parallel a compile job (make -j 2) and was within the dokcing station, all USB disks were atatched directly to the notebook. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
