Rsync processes one file at a time, so if the files are being updated while its running, the differnet files will be copied at different times.

You could create a snapshot and then rsync that to a backup: https://bitbucket.org/gordonmessmer/dragonsdawn-snapshot You could also use the "snapshot" project with rsnapshot, using this patch: https://github.com/rsnapshot/rsnapshot/pull/44 _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
