Hi, The way rdiff-backup works is that if a file is being transfered and the connection is lost, rdiff-backup rolls back the transfer of that file.
If the file is large - for example a database - it can take several hours to completley transfer a file. If the connection gets dropped, the transfer starts again from the beginning. Is there a way to do partial file transfers, so that the next time I invoke rdiff-backup, it carries on where it left off. rsync works this way with the --partial option. is it possible to do this with rdiff-backup? if not, is this somthing that can be added with a code change - or is there a fundamental reason why it cannot work this way? help much appreciated Mark _______________________________________________ rdiff-backup-users mailing list at [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki
