Hi.
I have a question about the use of the rsync batch capability with
--read-batch and --write-batch/--only-write-batch.
On my rsync server, where I am running rsync in daemon mode, I make a
tree available to my client.
The client has rsynced the entire tree from the server. So far, so good...
Now, it's the next day, and the copy on the server has changed.
On the client, I want to use "--only-write-batch" to store the changes
locally first (because I'll be installing those changes to a bunch of
other machines -- the "client" here is the "server" for the other
machines), but when I try this, I get a message from rsync that it's
trying to write to a read only filesystem...
The copy of the data on the *server* is read only of course...
As far as I understand, even though rsync is running on the client, the
server is trying to write the batch file locally? If I'm right, is there
any way to tell the client to store the copy of the changes, and not the
server? (In addition, is there an option to tell rsync not write the
helper "file.sh"?)
Thanks for any assistance you can provide!
Jason.
