Use the -modify-window=2 parameter to compensate for that.

The FAT filesystem can only store time stamps with 2 second resolution.

A2: If rsync is showing only a timestamp difference but -times doesn't seem to help then the problem is probably that your target is FAT formatted.

Note: the meaning of the output is explained in the -itemize-changes section of the rsync man page. If it shows only a timestamp difference then make sure you are running rsync with -times (or -archive which includes -times). This will prefix each file name in the output with a string telling you why rsync thinks it needs to modify that file.

#Acrosync generate ssh key update#

Q: Rsync seems to want to update file(s) even though they are all the same.

However, this takes significantly more time and creates significantly more server load than LVM snapshot method.

A3: Of course you can also just use the tool that comes with your database that dumps the database to a text file (mysqldump, pg_dump, etc) and then rsync backup those files.

The other way is to simply shut down the database while rsync is copying it. Then do a snapshot using your LVM or filesystem tools.

A2: You can get around that problem by telling the database engine to freeze the database files (lock the tables) so that they aren't being modified.

Using rsync or any other file based tool on them will create an inconsistent and probably corrupt copy. Database files are constantly being updated at the block level. Note that there is no conflict resolution.

A5: Here is an article from a user who put together a way to allow -delete to work in a multi-pass setup.

You can accomplish this by running rsync twice in both directions using the -update flag and NOT the -delete flag.

A4: It is possible to do a sort of 2-way sync.

A3: Or perhaps an internally provided cloud storage system such as OwnCloud and the underlying csync tool.

A2: If you are in this situation it is probably likely that what you really want is a source code revision control system like git, Subversion, or CVS.

#Acrosync generate ssh key plus#

A1: Unison has many of the same features as rsync plus it does remember what it has done in the past so the problems listed above are not an issue with it.The older would then be overwritten without notice of conflicting new data.

Also, if a file was modified on both rsync can only tell which is newer. Therefore when a file exists on A but not B rsync has no idea if you added that file to A or deleted it from B. Rsync has no memory of what it has done in the past.

What are some cool command line switches to read about and try with rsync?.

Why can't I access the files I just copied with rsync on Windows 7 or Vista?.I am using -checksum and it is really slow.I ran rsync but the source and the target are not the same size?.I am afraid of allowing root to ssh in to the system.Why does rsync re-copy the entire file when most of it is already there?.Do I need rsync installed on both systems?.How do I get rsync to transfer a file as soon as it is modified?.Do I need to setup the rsync service or nf file?.How do I connect to an sshd on a non-standard port number or use other ssh parameters?.Rsync seems to want to update file(s) even though they are all the same.Some of these may be covered in the official FAQ and all of them are probably covered in the man page but people ask anyway so here we are.
