Again, --partial only means don't delete the incomplete file if rsync is
aborted. Normally rsync will delete the incomplete file so you don't
have bogus files laying around.
When you rsync to or from a network mount to rsync that is a local copy.
To use rsync over the network either your source
Hi Kevin,
I'm not a systems manager so my apologies if I'm a little lost here. I'm an
audiovisual conservator/archivist and I use rsync for transferring files, a
lot.
Yes, I connect to the server and then it shows up as a disk on my desktop and I
run rsync between the external drive mounted
If you are doing a local only copy (rsync isn't networking) then
--whole-file is forced. There is no benefit of reading and checksumming
files to reduce network transfer when there is no network transfer.
You said you were moving data to a remote server so I assume you are
using a network mount o
Hi Kevin,
I haven't specified --whole-file. After entering an rsync command the terminal
always reads "delta-transmission disabled for local transfer or --whole-file"
but I assume that is just a standard phrase that always appears.
So, if I am running partial (-P) and not using --whole-file o
Partial means don't delete the incomplete file. The file is being
transferred because it doesn't match. But rsync does delta-transfers so
it won't actually transfer the parts that match. It will just verify
that they do match.
Unless of course --whole-file.

Hello,
I’m running rsync -avPhi to move large video files to a remote server. Often
we have to stop a transfer midway through to push something else to the server.
My hope was that the -P flag would invoke --partial and the transfer would
pick-up where it left off. This does not seem to be hap
