Hello,
So I'm trying rsync to back up files to an SMB mount from a local
filesystem. It seems to be working fine, EXCEPT it keeps synching
these files that are already in sync! It claims their times don't
match, but they do.. What is going on with it?
# rsync -rtOziv
building file list ... done
>f..t.... Myob/file1.MYO
>f..t.... Myob/file2.MYO
>f..t.... Myob/file3.MYO
>f..t.... Myob/file3.box
sent 1200986 bytes received 108 bytes 343169.71 bytes/sec
total size is 254545027 speedup is 211.93
(That's with -i option, > means sent, f means file and t means time
was reason for sync)
Running the sync again will produce the same result, synching the
files it just did..
SMB Mount:
-rwxr-xr-x 3866624 Nov 27 15:55 file1.MYO*
-rwxr-xr-x 3145728 Nov 30 12:21 file2.MYO*
-rwxr-xr-x 1179648 Dec 3 15:34 file3.MYO*
-rwxr-xr-x 65536 Dec 3 15:34 file3.box*
Local FS:
-rwxr-xr-x 3866624 Nov 27 15:55 file1.MYO*
-rwxr-xr-x 3145728 Nov 30 12:21 file2.MYO*
-rwxr-xr-x 1179648 Dec 3 15:34 file3.MYO*
-rwxr-xr-x 65536 Dec 3 15:34 file3.box*
As you can see they are exactly the same..
The owner and groups are different, and the directories they are in
may have different times as trying to set directory time on the SMB
side causes an error, but there are other files in the same place that
don't display this behavior and are of the same type, it's just these
4 that do it..
Maybe I should not check for time differences?
Cheers everyone, have a good christmas!
J.
