#922 Issue closed: path differences and missing log files when comparing sshfs and rsync transfers¶

Labels: enhancement, fixed / solved / done

tcerna opened issue at 2016-07-15 13:21:¶

Following files and directories are created on the server (rearserver) when sshfs is used

# ls -l /home/rear
total 112084
drwxr-x---. 2 root root        74 Jul 14 12:31 rearclient
# ls -l /home/rear/rearclient/
total 112264
-rw-------. 1 root root       202 Jul 14 12:31 README
-rw-------. 1 root root    173138 Jul 14 12:31 rear.log
-rw-------. 1 root root 114774016 Jul 14 12:31 rear-rearclient.iso
-rw-------. 1 root root       291 Jul 14 12:31 VERSION
#

The rest uses the same configuration, but word "sshfs" was replaced by "rsync"

• rear version (/usr/sbin/rear -V):
  rear-1.17.2-1.el7.noarch
• OS version (cat /etc/rear/os.conf or lsb_release -a):
  RHEL-7.2
• rear configuration files (cat /etc/rear/site.conf or cat /etc/rear/local.conf):

# cat /etc/rear/local.conf 
OUTPUT=ISO
OUTPUT_URL="rsync://192.168.122.153/home/rear"

Reproducer:

# ls -l /home/rear

====
# cat /etc/rear/local.conf 
OUTPUT=ISO
OUTPUT_URL="rsync://192.168.122.153/home/rear"

@tcerna The OUTPUT_URL scheme is copying now all required files in a consistent matter with latest commit

Closing because it is "fixed".
