if your filesystem switches to read-only, you have a serious problem with your system/storage, not with rsync. rsync (or the workload) is simply triggering the problem. regards roland Am 10.09.20 um 07:30 schrieb Philip Rhoades via rsync:
People, When I did: rsync -av /home/ /mntb5/ # about 4TB I got errors like: 'rsync [sender] expand file_list pointer array to xxx bytes, "did move"' with rsync hanging - after breakout on /home for writing I then get: "Read-only file system" So after unmounting and remounting /home I did: cd /home find /home/ -type d | sort > ./home_dirs_sorted.txt delete first line "/home/" of ./home_dirs_sorted.txt then: while read dir ; do echo $dir ; rsync -lptgod "$dir" /mntb5/"$dir" ; done < ./home_dirs_sorted.txt and: while read dir ; do echo $dir ; rsync -lptgoD "$dir"/\.[a-zA-Z0-9]* /mntb5/"$dir"/ ; done < ./home_dirs_sorted.txt and finally with no problems: rsync -av --exclude-from=/usr/local/bin/nfb_caches.txt /home/ /mntb5/ If there was a more sensible / efficient way of getting this done I would like to know about it! Thanks, Phil.
