Summary: Rsync times out during deletion on big folders
Product: rsync
Version: 3.0.9
Platform: x64
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: core
AssignedTo: way...@samba.org
ReportedBy: gabri...@tozzi.eu
QAContact: rsync...@samba.org
Hello,
I am using rsync to run daily backups on many circumstances and it always works
like a charm, so, first of all, thank you for creating this indispensable tool.
Unfortunately, it looks like I've found a bug: when I use rsync on a very big
folder with the delete and timeout options, it times out during deletion even
if the process is running normally, giving the following error:
rsync error: timeout in data send/receive (code 30) at io.c(137)
[receiver=3.0.9]
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (9 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(605)
[sender=3.0.9]
-1
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a destination folder with about 10.000 files (more if your PC is
faster) so that deletion of all the files will require more --timeout to
complete
2. Rsync from an empty folder to your destination folder using the --delete and
--timeout options
What happens:
Deletion of the files starts and goes on quite fast, until it unexpectedly ends
with the error above.
What I would expect to happen:
Rsync deleting all files without timing out.
More info:
This is just a guess: maybe the timeout counter is not reset during deletion?
My test command line:
ionice -c 3 nice -n 19 rsync -v -a -x --timeout=300 --delete /tmp/test
root@host:/mnt/slow/test
