Rsync Active Mirroring

2007-09-16 Thread Stephen Zemlicka
Can rsync support active mirroring? I've used robocopy in the past and it has a -mon switch that can copy ever x changes or every x minutes. I'm mostly interested in the x changes as the x minutes could easily be scheduled. Can rsync keep the data encrypted rather than unencrypting on the

If you're on windows, someone wrote a vss patch for rsync. I haven't used it extensively though but it has worked for in-use outlook pst files so far. I plan on testing it with exchange and sql databases in the near future. _ Stephen Zemlicka Integrated Computer

Handling of concurrent changes to source files is one of rsync's weaknesses. too bad, but good to know :) The rsync sender naively reads each source file from beginning to end and sends what it sees; it doesn't detect if source files change while being transferred. that`s what i feared.

Note that back-to-back rsyncs make the window of opportunity much much smaller for things to change during transit. yes, but it still leaves room for corrupted transfers nobody would probably know about !? -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: 16.09.07
