- 2017/09/06 18:38 howto:backup – (external edit) (current)
- 2014/01/14 13:49 howto:backup – --ignore-errors might be not a good idea in case of single backup since it deleted file on target if source is unreadable. See also http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=181805 92.225.151.137
- 2014/01/14 13:45 howto:backup – Adding --ignore-errors to rsync commands; elsewhere backups break in case of drive I/O error 92.225.151.137
- 2011/03/09 17:35 howto:backup – added information on the integrated backup service as of 1.09 81.218.153.66
- 2010/08/17 16:48 howto:backup – removed 'tutorial assumes you have setup rsync above', since it's not needed and first time the snapshot is run it will take a full backup, regardless if the above rsync has been done or not. 84.193.140.213
- 2010/03/22 06:56 howto:backup – remove the 'ignore-times' option since it conflicts with 'link-dest'. From the man page: "Note that if you combine this option (link-dest) with --ignore-times, rsync will not link any files together because it only links identical files together as a substitute for transferring the file, never as an additional check after the file is updated." 98.210.205.218
- 2009/05/17 15:24 howto:backup – taking out the change I made - understand now why one might do it this way 76.106.25.87
- 2009/05/17 15:11 howto:backup – rsync command was copying everything to Volume_2/HDA_2 instead of just Volume_2 76.106.25.87
- 2008/08/28 13:15 howto:backup – This solves an error with me, and I don't believe it creates new ones 212.127.192.128
