As mentioned along the way I've been using rsync 3.0.7 and I have never used files with 2GB gaps (actually files themselves were smaller than that) in my tests. However for the people, reading this thread later, I should say that using rsync over 3.0.5 as advised above, doesn't answer the question, I have asked in my original post. Thank you for the info - that is something, it is good to know. Images as sparse, but to preserve the original file size?īy file size I mean the size, that a file actuallyĪny help will be highly appreciated. The question is whether it is possible to copy. S, -sparse Try to handle sparse filesĮfficiently so they take up less space on the destination.įiles really are processed efficiently and take up less However, as it is said in the manual for rsync: They are copied just fine (the check sums of the original Images (which are sparse files) with rsync.įor that purpose I'm using the -S (-sparse) option and There is a need to copy dynamically allocated VMware disk ![]() Trying to find any relevant information on the web didn'tĮnd up with anything as well, so I'm asking here - may be Rsync, but I've not received much feedback on its If I copy however subsonic can see the folders and the files.I'm sorry in advance, this is a question primarily about ![]() Currently if I run rsync subsonic can see the folders but not the songs. My goal is to get rsync to end up with the same permissions as if I just copied them. The source looks like: /run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share:server=flat,share=completed/ The permissions when running rsync look like: -rwxrwxr-x 1 kv kv 5691435 01 - Song title.flac The permissions when copying look like: -rw-rw-r- 1 kv kv 5691435 01 - Song title.flac The permissions for the album folders seems to be the same between rsync and copying but the songs within the folders end up with different permissions based on what method I end up choosing. When I run a grsync with no settings having to do with permissions everything seems to go good but when I check on the songs inside of the album folders they seem to have different permissions from what I would get if I just mounted the windows folder in nautilus and then copied all the files. However if I run grsync the file permissions some how get messed up and the subsonic software can only see the folders (album folders) and cannot see the songs themselves. Currently what I have noticed is if I copy the files from the mounted windows share just using nautlius the subsonic software will see both the files (songs) and the folders (album folders). ![]() Subsonic uses a user that was created without a home folder called "subsonic". These files are intended to be used with subsonic (software that allows you to stream your own music library). My intent is to use my ubuntu computer to rsync and pull the files from this "completed" folder and place them into a folder on my ubuntu computer. I have a windows 10 computer (named "flat") with a shared folder called "completed" this folder is filled with music in the structure of completed>albumfolder>song. Currently I'm not sure how to get to my windows share through the terminal. The reason I am using grsync is it seems a lot easier to use my mounted windows share when using the browse feature. I am having trouble with permissions when using gRsync.
