Hi Steven, Yes, both file systems are the same.
rsync -nri --modify-window=1 <src> <dest> Gives me the following for most files >f..T....... 2015_167_1_1__Boy_What_A_Girl_R2/2015_167_1_1__Boy_What_A_Girl__UHD_DPX_R2/ BWAG_R2_00138428.dpx Although a few have >f..T......n 2015_167_1_1__Boy_What_A_Girl_R2/2015_167_1_1__Boy_What_A_Girl__UHD_DPX_R2/ BWAG_R2_00135909.dpx Strangely, no matter what HDD I¹m transferring from it is always the same sequence of files that have the n - "A n means the create time (newness) is different and is being updated to the sender's value (requires --crtimes). (I¹m not quite sure I completely understand ‹-modify-window) Here is a <dest> file example of timestamps as rsync interprets them: -rwxrwxrwx 24,839,552 2016/06/08 13:13:19 BWAG_R2_00086400.dpx Here is a <src> file example of timestamps as rsync interprets them: -rwxrwxrwx 24,839,552 2016/05/27 13:43:32 BWAG_R2_00086400.dpx So, yeah, that is the problem, apparently. The timestamps are transferring. But, for the files that have the ³n² the timestamps appear to be fine and those ones don¹t continually transfer. A mystery to me as to why the timestamps work on these particular files. <src> -rwxrwxrwx 24,839,552 2016/05/27 14:00:57 BWAG_R2_00130798.dpx <dest> -rwxrwxrwx 24,839,552 2016/05/27 14:00:57 BWAG_R2_00130798.dpx I¹m running version 3.1.2 protocol 31.
