Re: Is anyone replicating .5TB or higher?

If your wanting database replication, let the database software handle the replication. Most database server products have at least one way replication. Trying to have some file system level replication package replicate all that data would be killer.. in fact, it would never finish because

Filesystem panic

Hi, I'm running RH9, 2.4.20-18.9. Each night, the server mounts an external FAT32 disk using firewire, and performs backups to it using rsync. Twice within the past 3 months, the backup process has resulted in machine crash (complete hang, hardware reboot needed). From /var/log/messages: Oct 22

rsync user@host:src user@host:dest ?

issue with large number of files

2003-10-22 Thread Sven Geisler
Hi, I use rsync to syncronize two systems. There are 2 million + files. My problem is 1. rsync is very slow (it needs more than 48 hours) 2. rsync needs too much RAM (ca. 750 MByte on each server) The backup software needs 14 hours including file transfer to the backup server for full backup.

Synching text files.

That's an interesting idea. As a temporary measure you might different tcp ports rather than module names to distinguish different services, and then use tcp redirectors. -- Martin -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read:
