Single template for multiple directories.
I am running rsync2.4.6 on Solaris 2.6 (solaris) and HP-UX11 (clients). I need to use a "template" directory on the server to set up multiple directories on the clients. Basically, I'm trying to reset the user directories to an initial image (this is for a training room). The set is as follows: - client machine name is hostXX, where XX is a 2 digit number - user directories are under /u - there are multiple users, with names in the format of nameXX, personXX, etc, etc. - the template directory lives on the server in /Master/template. I want rsync to remove any directories in /u that are not user directories specifically tied to that machine (ie /u/name05 is not valid on host01). I want rsync to set all valid user directories to match the template directory on the server. It looks like I will have to do an rsh from the server to reset the permissions on the home directories after the rsync has completed. The rsync is being run on the server, inside of a for loop: for I in 01 02 03 ... Right now, I have created multiple templates on the server, one per client. This takes care of the permissions problem, and ensures that the /u directory does not contain extra files/directories. The problem is maintaining the templates on the server becomes difficult. Does anyone have *any* suggestions for me? == Matt Sabourin Systems Engineer Structural Dynamics Research Corp. 1555 Fairlane Dr., Suite 300Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Allen Park, MI 48101 ==
RE: transfer interrupted, and Not privileged errors,
That's pretty strange, for two reasons: as far as I knew, everything ought to go to stderr, stdout, or the log file. When you say "console", do you mean it comes out in your current window, or it goes to the actual VGA adapter/serial console of the server? In the current window the rsync was executed from, even if you redirect stderr someplace else. For instance, I run something just like this: rsync -avvvz /tmp/rsync-2.4.6/lib fdops3::marktg 21 /rsync.txt (indicating a different source directory to affect a backup) in a cron job wrapped in an exec. I get the usual stuff in the log, but the 'unlink' messages come to me in an e-mail from cron saying this is the output of my job. Oh... and the second reason it's strange is that rsync is deleting anything at all. Todd, would you mind please 1. running with just the -r (recursive) flag, not -a (archive) Ok, did: rsync -r /tmp/rsync-2.4.6/lib fdops3::marktg 21 /rsync.txt got: unlink lib : Not privileged unlink lib : Not privileged in the same window following the above command, /rsync.txt was empty (len 0), the server log file shows it received all the files in the lib directory, 2. confirming that when copying the rsync source, the error occurs even if the source directory is empty cd /tmp/rsync-2.4.6/lib rm * cd / rsync -r /tmp/rsync-2.4.6/lib fdops3::marktg 21 /rsync.txt got: unlink lib : Not privileged unlink lib : Not privileged in the same window following the above command, /rsync.txt was empty (len 0), the server log shows no files transferred 3. Applying the attached patch (or equivalently building from CVS); this will produce better explanations of where the error occurs. If you're concerned about disrupting the machines then it's OK to just build and not install the daemon; you can then run it with a command like # ./rsync-patched/rsync --daemon --port 8129 Applied the patch and re-built, part way through the make I got these errors: UX:acomp: WARNING: "socket.c", line 221: argument is incompatible with prototype: arg #5 UX:acomp: WARNING: "socket.c", line 264: argument is incompatible with prototype: arg #3 UX:acomp: WARNING: "socket.c", line 441: argument is incompatible with prototype: arg #3 UX:acomp: WARNING: "socket.c", line 470: argument is incompatible with prototype: arg #3 installed Ok. kill and restart daemon. (note: all this is done on the server side, not the client) from the client side: (reload the rsync tar so there is stuff in lib now) rsync -r /tmp/rsync-2.4.6/lib fdops3::marktg 21 /rsync.txt I get the following immediately after the command: recv_generator: unlink lib: Not privileged recv_generator: unlink lib: Not privileged nothing in /rsync.txt, server log lists all files transferred, then 'wrote 32 read 72750 size 72169' and 'transfer interrupted (code 102) at main.c(433)' Thanks, Todd

Some configuration help needed.
Hi everyone, I have been using rsync now for about 2 months on my companies' two job servers with great success. Twice when our main jobserver has gone down, our second "mirrored" server has picked up the ball and ran with it. However something happened last night that was very (funny to me) interesting. The #2 Controller on our Andataco raid cabinet died, so instead of calling me or my other sysadmin partner our GM decided to reboot server 1 on his own. What ended up happening was several raid volumes did not mount because of a controller fault, otherwise the server came up fine including rsync (not rsync's fault at all). As most of you can already guess, server 2 came calling and got empty volumes, esentially wiping server 2 out. :) Now my question is, does anyone have a suggestion of a test that I can run prior to rsync (which is run through a crontab) that I can use to stop rsync? The server actually wasn't rebooted for about two hours so at one point it was "down". Basically we sync the servers once an hour because we do high volume graphics editing on very critical time schedules. Thanks, Tyler.

It doesnt prevent the total move of your files, but it is a lot better to have all files moved to /backup/2000-11-08 e.g. then to /dev/null. This saves you even in case of accidential deletion or ILOVEYOU mails.

For instance, I run something just like this: rsync -avvvz /tmp/rsync-2.4.6/lib fdops3::marktg 21 /rsync.txt Ah, OK. This is because stderr is not actually redirected! The construct 21 means ``send fd2 (stderr) to wherever fd1 (stdout) is pointing *at the moment*''. Since redirections are evaluated in order left-to-right, this sends stderr to the terminal (probably where it was already going), and then sends stdout to the file. From the bash man page: Note that the order of redirections is significant. For example, the command ls dirlist 21 directs both standard output and standard error to the file dirlist, while the command ls 21 dirlist directs only the standard output to file dirlist, because the standard error was duplicated as standard output before the standard output was redirected to dirlist. I still remember the `ah-ha!' moment when this sunk in a few years ago. Regards, -- Martin Pool, Linuxcare, Inc. +61 2 6262 8990 [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.linuxcare.com/ Linuxcare.
