Hi,
I agree, a tool with proper wrapping delivered in samples would be the
right approach.
No warranty, no support - below a prototype I documented 2 years ago (prior
to mmfind availability). The BP used an alternate approach, so its not
tested at scale, but the principle was tested and works.
Reading through it right now I'd re-test the 'deleted files on destination
that were deleted on the source' scenario, that might now require some
fixing.
# Use 'GPFS patched' rsync on both ends to keep GPFS attributes
https://github.com/gpfsug/gpfsug-tools/tree/master/bin/rsync
# Policy - initial & differential (add mod_time > .. for incremental runs.
Use MOD_TIME < .. to have a defined start for the next incremental rsync,
remove it for the 'final' rsync)

Be sure you verify that extended attributes are properly replicated. I have
in mind that you need to ensure the 'remote' rsync is not the default one,
but the one with GPFS capabilities (rsync -e "remoteshell").
