Thank you for this information. The correct setting needs quotes:

--log-format="log: %o %i %B %8U,%8G %9l %f%L"

When I was debugging an issue some time ago, I added a setting to RsyngArgs 
which caused all files to be listed in the XferLOGs.  I believe the relevant 
setting was:

--log-format=log: %o %i %B %8U,%8G %9l %f%L

but I can't find documentation to confirm that.  In any case, I now get entries 
in XferLOG while it works, which look like


    new    recv >f.st...... rw-r-----       33,       4    157414 
var/log/nginx/access.log

    new    recv >f.st...... rw-r-----       33,       4    185251 
var/log/nginx/access.log.1

    pool   recv >f.st...... rw-r-----       33,       4      4652 
var/log/nginx/access.log.10.gz

    pool   recv >f.st...... rw-r-----       33,       4      4721 
var/log/nginx/access.log.11.gz

I have one backup host defined that has about 333 GB of data. The "full" job 
when it competes takes about 9 hours to run.



Right now I see no progress indicators. Even if the log file showed a list of 
files that would be great. The log level is set to five but no files are listed.



While a backup job is running, is there a log file being written somewhere?
