We have a particular file system that we're trying to keep in sync between two FreeBSD/ZFS servers using Rsync.
The file system has many millions of files, and about 4TB of data total. Rsync takes HOURS to run, even when there are no files to transfer. Just the comparison itself takes hours. Is there any way to speed up the transfer? The command line I'm using is: /usr/local/bin/rsync --stats --rsh=/usr/bin/rsh --recursive --delete --one-file-system --xattrs --links --hard-links --times --perms --owner --group --exclude=.zfs /foo/bar root@remote:/foo/bar Thanks! -- Tim Gustafson t...@soe.ucsc.edu 831-459-5354 Baskin Engineering, Room 313A -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
