I have a backup that involves mounting an s3ql file system and using 'rsync --delete ...' to do the backup.
If a large folder (or file) is moved, there is a risk that the files will be 'deleted' before they area created again, possibly resulting in remote data being deleted then recreated. Is this concern genuine? Would doing: 'rsync' (with no --delete) followed by 'rsync --delete ...' be the best way to alleviate the risk of wasted bandwidth (and time) here? Or should I consider a snapshot, the 'rsync --delete' then delete the snapshot? Any advice appreciated! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "s3ql" group.
