Hi, I have done this with a cron job, only the first time i had to transfer 15GB, but did it first time in the weekend, afterwards, in my situation is only a small amount of data that has to be transfered every night, so every day at 02.00 the rsync starts and stops automaticly within 1-3 hours.

2009-09-17 Thread Fabian Cenedese
Hi I'd like to rsync a large amount of data over a slow connection, but only during night hours. I couldn't find a parameter that limits the time that rsync is running, only the timeout on idle time. I guess the way to go would be to start rsync, get the process ID and kill the process later on.
