Hello all, I'm trying to copy a whole block device to another server. My issue is that I'm not able to write to a block device. The special file is overwritten by the normal file.
I'm using rsync 3.1.3 on both servers, and I tried some commands: #rsync --bwlimit=100k -vvPz --copy-devices /dev/sdb root@10.144.162.85:/dev/sdd #rsync --bwlimit=100k -vvPz --copy-devices --inplace /dev/sdb root@10.144.162.85:/dev/sdd #rsync --bwlimit=100k -vvPz --copy-devices --inplace --devices /dev/sdb root@10.144.162.85:/dev/sdd None of the commands worked well for me.

I cannot use the --write-devices option I cannot understand if the 3.1.3 contain the write-devices option or if I have to apply this patch. Can someone help me understanding the problem?
