I have the following script for backing up my myth recordings, videos,

I used to have a -a switch, but then I would get chown errors. I tried -c for checksum, but that was taking forever, maybe I should use
it and be patient?
I know I'm using the dangerous --delete, but I want it working that way.
I've looked through all the rsync options, but I can't figure out which
switches I should use. I obviously don't want it copying 200+ gig every
night, just new changes.

Any quick suggestions?

Try and find out what the problem with the -a flag is. I guess if that's not working its probably having trouble checking for date/time diffs.
and.... since you're using rsync.. why are you mounting the storage directory with nfs. You should run the rsync daemon with storage as an export.


Thanks,
James
