Rsync Exclude Directory
vote favorite 1 I use rsync command to take backup of files from one of my ubuntu server to another ubuntu machine. Backup server trigger a script that use rysnc command. Here is the command I use rsync -rltvh --partial --stats --exclude=.beagle/ --exclude=.* --delete-after root@live_server:/home/ /home/live_server_backup/home >> /tmp/logfile.log 2>&1 live_server is ssh-able without password. So it works. Now problem is with --delete-after option After all file synced .At the end I can see deletion procedure skipped.logfile error is rsync options like IO error encountered -- skipping file deletion When i tried to find log there were some error while file sync rsync: send_files failed to open "/home/xyz/Desktop/PPT_session_1_context.pdf": Permission denied (13) So my understanding is as rsync could not read all the files from target for safety reason it is skipping the file deletion. Is there any way to make --delete-after work even if there is some permission error? I do not want to use force deletion as it will be dangerous in some situation. permissions delete rsync share|improve this question asked Dec 7 '12 at 3:29 Jam88 86224 3 Pssst, accept an answer! –SickAnimations Aug 5 '14 at 4:06 1 Pssst again...

The list can be generated with find . -exec test -r '{}' in the source directory and then massaged into the exclusion file format rsync wants. share|improve this answer answered Dec 7 '12 at 4:48 Kyle Jones 5,0112924 actually my

] [ subject ] [ author ] That is a safety mechanism. If there was an error, the https://lists.samba.org/archive/rsync/2004-June/009891.html lists may be in error, and a deletion may take out a whole lot more than you want. Picture getting permissions on a large section of the source directory messed up so the rsync process can't see into them. The send list now does not include everything down there, but it can be seen, and io error deleted, on the destination. Generally, users would prefer to rectify the problems on the source end and re-run the sync, rather than losing large quantities on the destination end. This safety mechanism can be overridden, by the "--ignore-errors" flag. If you're taking the default --delete behaviour, wherein it deletes before the transfer (can be overridden by io error rsyncx "--delete-after"), these errors are in the filelist generation stage, not problems of insufficient space, or dropped connection. If you do, in fact, have a place you can't read on the destination or source, and it should be that way, exclude it. That way, it won't hit it and error, so you can both run your sync with deletes, and still have it try not to ruin your life over a little problem.
