Rsync cron jobs

Post by georgeyates » 2019/08/12 08:38:25

Hi Guys,

Looking for confirmation or otherwise of my rsync cron jobs.

old cron jobs (to mirror data drives to USB backup)

data drive ext4 to USB ext4 (seems to have not been backing up spreadsheets that change weekly)

rsync -avhP --delete --append --log-file=/root/Documents/name.txt /mnt/data/source/ /mnt/usbback/destination/

New server with 3 x 1TB HDD RAID 5. (Decided to use xfs on data array due to having a lot of files > 1GB (disk images etc)

Intended cron jobs (no P option)

There's not really a question here.

Answer: Can your restore backup(s) and achieve what is expected? If not no confirmation, if you can yes, confirmation.

Why? Is this really the question?
