Hi all! I'm syncing a windows share from a NetApp filer to a local partition on my RHEL3 box. I observe the following behavior:
- rsync syncs more than neccessary, files that haven't changed since years - files that have been synced, aged for an hour or two on the netapp host Environment: cifs share mounted to /backup/sync (mount -t smbfs -o username=user,password=pwd //server/share /backup/sync) this user has only read rights on the windows share mirror the mounted cifs share to a local partition (rsync -a --delete-after /backup/sync/ /dest/dir) where is my problem? do I use the wrong switches? how is it possible that the files age a few hours on the source? Thank you all in advance for your help Juergen -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
