So:
rsync -avHW /src/path /dest/path Copies, but rsync -avH /src/path /dest/path Still copies more and no data has changed on the source or Dest.
I tried # cd /source # tar cf - * | ( cd /target ; tar xf - )
Followed by rsync -avH /src/path /dest/path But it still copies files.
Looks like tagging a -u to the rsync line fixes it. The destination appears for some reason to get newer timestamps. "ls -la" shows expected time "ls -lu" shows close to current time

Or rsync --whole-file the first time, or ndmpcopy.

Hi tmac,

Okay, I am trying to copy data from a DOT-7 to a DOT-GX.
...
I then do (from RHEL4U2):
cp -a /src/dir1 /gx
I then do:
rsyn -avH --delete /src/dir1/ /gx/dir1/
There is nothing changing on the source, yet it transfers files anyway.
Anyone have a clue as to why?
cp doesnt take all metadata. Try tar/cpio!
# cd /source # tar cf - * | ( cd /target ; tar xf - )
