Re: Rsync reliability?



I believe that the problem was largely due to the fact that you were backing up to local volume rather than a network volume. I remember at the time that folks who were trying to backup to firewire drives for instance were seeing this problem more than folks backing up over the network.

Entity Robert Nicholson spoke thus:

Are you using the -E flag? I also found that as soon as Tiger was
released that it crashed nearly every time using the -E flag. I also
posted about this at the time too.
I've never had rsync crash while using the -E option. Offhand I would say
all these nebbishes haven't studied the rsync manpage very well. It's a very
powerful command with a lot of options and mastering the tool takes weeks of
study.


I read some of those negative reviews of rsync and pretty much scoff,
although I did report earlier here that I have a problem copying Mac
resource files to a DOS disk.

Also, do you suppose you can respond to some text? It's like being blind
responding to such vague and nebulous allegations.
