Operation not supported (95)

2016-06-23 Thread Albert Berger
Greetings! During migrating i686 installation of ArchLinux to x86_64, all filesystem was rsynced to a new location. Maybe this somehow relates to the problem that has appeared after migrating and that did not happen before: during backuping the system, rsync reports the following error message:

Any way to preserve file access times?

2016-06-19 Thread Albert Berger
Greetings! Though it's a bit strange for archiving/syncing program not to have an option of preserving file access times, but even the 'official' patch for enabing this option (the link to which is on the download page) doesn't work properly. I wonder is there a way to preserve the access times o

/root is wrongly copied during update

2016-06-18 Thread Albert Berger
For backuping system folders on ArchLinux I use the following command per folder: rsync --update -DHAErlptgo --relative --delete-during $dir $backupdir The problem is that every file in /root folder and its subfolders is copied each time when this command is run. In all other folders only new or

Does atimes.diff patch work?

2016-03-28 Thread Albert Berger
Greetings, I applied the atimes.diff patch from the rsync-patches file from the rsync download page, but it seems not to be working: the original file access times of copied files are not preserved. Does this patch work correctly for someone? Regards, A. Berger. -- Please use reply-all for mos

-H option causes unneccessary transfers

2016-03-28 Thread Albert Berger
Greetings, when the daily system backup with rsync is performed, thousands of files (e.g. from /usr directory), which are not modified are uselessly transferrred to the backup storage every day. The rsync command is the following: rsync --update -DHAErlptgo --relative --atimes --delete-during
