Performance and simultaneous connections over SSH

 Actually I recently noticed other issues where the rsync process dumps core
so I am not even sure if I am getting all the data synced up correctly. The
files I transfer are fairly large (hundreds of thousands of lines). 

 

I have not been able to dedicate myself to addressing this issue further. So
my solution just limps along for now.

Hi Francois,

 

     Have you got any progress about the performance?

 

     I am asking that because I have rsync running in a Linux RH5 in our
main office making the rsync for 22 sites and I am getting the same issue:

 

     I have tried to schedule it to start at different times and no luck.

 

     The average band size for the sites are 4 mbytes.

 

    - the rsync drops for Connection timed out, but that DOES NOT happens
when it run once site at time.

 

     The last parameters that I have added are : --bwlimit=2048
--timeout=900 but that did not make difference.

 

 

Matt/Francois and anyone:

 

     Any reply will be appreciate.

 

Thank you.

 

Kind Regards,

Ricardo Olguin

I would suggest enabling logging with --log-file on either the client or the
server side to get more information about what is happening.

Correct.  The four rsync instances on the log repo server will work
independently.
