Hello, I am having a very strange problem with rsync. If I attempt to ONLY rsync the updates folder everythign works great. However when I try to add the os folder for i386, ia64 and x86_64 to rsync (used for kickstart builds), it just hangs. To cut down on the download time I had copied the contents of the DVD for all three platforms into the os directory.
# sh updates.cron receiving file list ... 9761 files to consider ./700 files... os/ os/i386/ os/i386/CentOS/ os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/ os/i386/CentOS/base/ os/i386/NOTES/ os/i386/headers/ os/i386/images/ os/i386/images/pxeboot/ os/i386/isolinux/ os/i386/repodata/ os/i386/repodata/filelists.xml.gz os/ia64/ os/ia64/CentOS/ os/ia64/CentOS/RPMS/ 98304 5% 19.58kB/s 0:01:23
Here is my script: (update.sh) #!/bin/sh export RSYNC_PROXY="proxy.company.com:8080 " EXCLUSION="/etc/rsync-exclude.list" RSYNC_HOST="altruistic.lbl.gov" RSYNC_ROOT="mirrors/centos/4/" DESTINATION="/home/ftp/pub/Linux/CentOS/4/" /usr/bin/rsync -aHv --bwlimit=20 --stats --progress --exclude-from=$EXCLUSION --delete $RSYNC_HOST::$RSYNC_ROOT $DESTINATION /bin/chown -R vijay.avarachen:spduslisadmins $DESTINATION
