Bug ID: 11668 Summary: incorrect/inconsistent behavior when --backup-dir is on a full filesystem Product: rsync Version: 3.1.2 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 Component: core Assignee: way...@samba.org Reporter: abeze...@archive.org QA Contact: rsync...@samba.org hello - we are having some issues w/the exit value of `rsync --backup` when --backup-dir is on a full filesystem. for instance: * rsync version 3.1.2 protocol version 31 * the filesystem mounted on /2 is 100% full, /1 has plenty of space when the destination files exist but a delta needs to be transmitted, running: > rsync -av --delete -b --backup-dir=/2/tmp > rsync://instance0.us.archive.org/items_11/McGillLibrary-129621-5035 /1/2.1/. results in: > receiving incremental file list > McGillLibrary-129621-5035/129621_scandata.xml > rsync: backup mkdir /2/tmp/McGillLibrary-129621-5035 failed: No space left on > device (28) > > sent 164 bytes received 1,333 bytes 2,994.00 bytes/sec > total size is 26,763,596 speedup is 17,878.15 and an exit status of 0 despite the error. the file-to-be-modified remains unchanged, and the rsync tmpfile that is transferred over is left in place. subsequent runs of the command also fail, but with an exit value of 23 (i'm guessing because the make_backup reports failing as well as the "backup mkdir"?): > receiving incremental file list > rsync: backup mkdir /2/tmp/McGillLibrary-129621-5035 failed: No space left on > device (28) > rsync: delete_file: > make_backup(McGillLibrary-129621-5035/.129621_scandata.xml.nKW4Sg) failed: > Success (0) > McGillLibrary-129621-5035/129621_scandata.xml > rsync: backup mkdir /2/tmp/McGillLibrary-129621-5035 failed: No space left on > device (28) > > sent 164 bytes received 1,333 bytes 2,994.00 bytes/sec > total size is 26,763,596 speedup is 17,878.15 > rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors) > (code 23) at main.c(1650) [generator=3.1.2] i _believe_ that this behavior started in 3.1.0 (best recollection is that 3.0.9 did not suffer from this, although https://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2013-July/028488.html looks like it may be related). thank you in advance for any help you can provide, and thanks for rsync! please let me know if there is additional information that may be useful or further tests that can be run. -- 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.
