Copying using a parallel directory.

I work at a remote site, and I often use rsync to copy Unix application directories from the corporate site, to my own. Often these directories are minor revisions of previous installations. (ie: /base/app/1.1, /base/app/1.2 /base/app/1.2.1 ) I can make a copy of the previous directory

And, although rsync does parallelize, nothing stops you from running multiple instances of rsync. I had to transfer files from system A to system B, and being limited by the processing power of a single thread of rsync, I drilled down one level, and ran rsync's against each the first level file

RE: Best organizing hundreds of thousands files for rsync and find

2013-03-28 Thread Stier, Matthew
Another issue is that rsync and find are single threaded applications. No matter how many processors/cores/threads the system has, each invocation of find or rsync will use only one thread. You can gain some parallelization by stepping up a level in the directory and running running find's or

There’s more to the issue, than simply splitting the files among N workers. All the directories would need to transferred first. You wouldn’t want worker “D” trying to copy a file, before worker “C” was able to create the directory to hold it. There is also the issue of hard links. Where would

Or softlinks, if you use the '--copy-links' option. This has two other advantages: One: The links are self documenting. (With hard links you have to search for inodes.) Two: The sync source directory does not have to be in the same filesystem as the original files. -Original Message
