Transfering very large files / and restarting failures

Hi, My situation is that I would like to use rsync to copy very large files within my network/systems. Specifically, these files are in the order of 10-100GB. Needless to say, I would like to be able to restart a transfer if it only partially succeeded, but NOT repeat the work already done
