<p class="MsoNormal">Hello all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This is my first post to this mailing list. I have been using rsync for a bit and have it mostly working the way I want.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a backup server that I run all scripts from. It rsyncs data from four different Linux servers via cron. A sample of a script is here:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">rsync -avz --log-format="%t %b %f %l %M" --delete --stats -e "ssh -i /root/rsync/authors-rsync-key" backup@mydomain.com:/disk2/www /backup/seic37 2>&1 >> /var/log/rsync/rsync.log<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This works fine and I get the log file entry that shows this:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2011/11/22 13:20:51 2089 acad0304/alllibdirstaff.MYI 2048 2011/08/31-12:46:20<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would like to include the IP and/or hostname of the machine being backed up, but when I use %a (remote IP) or %h (remote host) in the –log-format=, it just writes the literal %a or %h in those fields. Could this be because I am running
scripts from the machine that is on the receiving end. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Inspire me. Thanks. <o:p></o:p></p>
