Hi, I am runing rsync --backup --backup-dir=$BACKUPDIR where the BACKUPDIR=$(date +%d) to recycle the $BACKUPDIR in a month. But rsync does not clean the $BACKUPDIR before writing to it in cycling.
I guess you have to clean it manually before the rsync can write to it. As my $BACKUPDIR is in remote machine, do you have to run ssh to delete it first before calling rsync in a script? Or if there is better parameter in rsync to automatically delete the old $BACKUPDIR, and create a new one? Thank you. - j
