People,
When I did:
rsync -av /home/ /mntb5/ # about 4TB
I got errors like:
'rsync [sender] expand file_list pointer array to xxx bytes, "did
move"'
with rsync hanging - after breakout on /home for writing I then get:
"Read-only file system"
So after unmounting and remounting /home I did:
cd /home
find /home/ -type d | sort > ./home_dirs_sorted.txt
delete first line "/home/" of ./home_dirs_sorted.txt then:
while read dir ; do echo $dir ; rsync -lptgod "$dir" /mntb5/"$dir" ;
done < ./home_dirs_sorted.txt
and:
while read dir ; do echo $dir ; rsync -lptgoD "$dir"/\.[a-zA-Z0-9]*
/mntb5/"$dir"/ ; done < ./home_dirs_sorted.txt
and finally with no problems:
rsync -av --exclude-from=/usr/local/bin/nfb_caches.txt /home/ /mntb5/
If there was a more sensible / efficient way of getting this done I
would like to know about it!
Thanks,
Phil.
