I have been running my BackupPC_digestVerify.pl program to check the
rsync digests in my pool.
Looking through the 1/x/x/ tree, I found 3 new bad digests out of
about 36000 when using the default blocksize of 2048.
It turns out that those 3 digests have a blocksize !=2048 -- and
indeed the digests do verify if you use that blocksize.
These files have block size 2327 and 9906 (twice).
Note the file sizes are 99MB, 11MB, and 16MB.
This seems *weird* and *wrong* since I thought the blocksize was fixed
to 2048 according to the (default) parameters passed to rsync in the
config.pl file. Specifically,
'--block-size=2048',
Any idea why rsync may be ignoring this and using a larger blocksize
for these files?
