good idea, I didn't have the -l option. Now I run rsync like this: |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
sudo /usr/bin/ionice -c 3 /usr/bin/rsync -aAlx --exclude suspend_file |
| 10 |
--delete --delete-excluded --delete-before --partial --human-readable / |
| 11 |
"${MOUNTPT}" >>"${LOGFILE}" |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Note the "-l" AND "--delete-before". |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
However I'm STILL filling up the second drive for some unknown reason. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
I've added "--exclude /usr/portage/distfiles" to the rsync options, |
| 18 |
since there's no need to back up my distfiles, but I'd like to know why |
| 19 |
it's not working... |

It doesn't matter whether you win or lose -- until you lose. |
