rsync time machine backup permissions

Dear rsync users, I'm trying to copy my Time Machine Backup from my old USB hard drive to a new one. I got error messages, because rsync don't create group and other permissions. I use rsync 3.1.3. Did I use the correct parameters? Who has an idea, what mistake? Thanks! Best, André -- The

Very slow to start sync with millions of directories and files

Hi all, I'm using rsync 3 to copy all files from one disk to another. The files were writen by Minio, an S3 compatible opensource backend. The number of files is dozens of millions, almost each of them within its own directory. Rsync takes a long time, when not several hours, to even start

Re: Very slow to start sync with millions of directories and files

The performance of rsync with a huge number of files is greatly determined by every option you are using. So, what is your whole command line? On 03/19/2018 09:05 AM, Bráulio Bhavamitra via rsync wrote: > Hi all, >   > I'm using rsync 3 to copy all files from one disk to another. The files >

A sync with some test folders works. I think, the attributes are the problem. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list. To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read:

Re: rsync time machine backup permissions

I'm not sure if this might be an issue here. Since your variable isn't quoted, it might not be. But: When you run rsync as rsync $param1 ... and param1 is null, it may still be treated as the first argument to rsync - which may add the current directory to your sources or throw things off in

Re: rsync time machine backup permissions

What is the order that rsync uses to set permissions? Time Machine directories have ACL permissions that basically prohibit making any changes of any kind. In order to make a backup of the directory, you would need to set those permissions after copying everything in the subdirectories. Is
