I want to create an exact copy of a whole hard disk and to maintain this copy
synchronised with the original one. The idea is to have a safe backup that
allows me, in case the original disk fails, to change it by the clone

Sorry to 'bump' this one back to the list but I'm not clear - is there a

rsync -ax --delete --force / /backup/
I think that will do it.
You might want to run a list of rsync commands on a list of directories

hi guyz,
One simple question. What does rsync do when it encounters open files.
