Error 28 and exclusion

2013-02-11 Thread scott . george
I am having two issues with a transfer I perform every weekend.  The first 
is I am trying to exclude a directory with the following command:

/usr/bin/rsync --rsync-path=/usr/bin/rsync --rsh=/usr/bin/rsh 
--log-file=/tmp/rsync.out --exclude /gcse1/infor/ --delete-before -rptS 
usaix:/gcse1/ /gcse1

I am attempting to pull and synchronize the directory /gcse1 with my local 
server directory /gcse1, but exclude /gcse1/infor .  When looking through 
the logs, it appears that files were transferred within the /gcse1/infor 
tree after all. 

I naturally assumed that I followed documentation and examples well 
enough, but obviously not.

Secondly, I am receiving an error 28 (ENOSPC) on the transfer of a large 
file.  I make sure the destination file system is double what the source 
for the possibility of needing to keep copies of both during transfer, but 
I assumed --delete-before would help me avoid that. 

BTW, the rsync version I am using on both ends is rsync  version 3.0.9 
protocol version 30 on AIX 5.3.

Thank you for any assistance you can offer.

Exclude paths are relative to the source path.  Therefore you want to
exclude /infor/

Are you actually using rsh?  If so make sure you know the security
implications.

As for the space issue is it possible that you are hitting a file size
limitation?  Those are usually at 2GB or 4GB but my knowledge of AIX
is pretty minimal.

If a file still exists at the destination but is changed on the source,
then there will be at a point in time two copies of the file at the
destination: the original file and the newly copied file from the
source, under its temporary name. --delete-whatever doesn't come into it.

Only way to avoid that would be --inplace but that might be detrimental
to the speedup, as moved data might not be able to be used as it might
be written over during the transfer. Also the file's contents are not
correct during the transfer (by default the file will have either the
old or the new contents, but not a mix of the two).
