Thank you so much for helping me
Now I am trying to use the following command to backup
all files in hda to sda3 (mount on seconddrive folder)
in the same machine and also excludes
/usr/bin/rsync -avz --exclude=/boot1
--exclude=/seconddrive --exclude=/proc /* /seconddrive
try below .
it copies /opt/maildaily/maildaily.tar.gz to /mnt/maildaily
/usr/bin/rsync -a /opt/maildaily/maildaily.tar.gz /mnt/maildaily
FOR more, pls understand below command and its meaning.
rsync -avz --delete --exclude=**/stats --exclude=**/error --exclude=**/files/pictures -e "ssh -i /root/rsync/mirror-rsync-key" someuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/var/www/ /var/www/
(The --delete option means that files that have been deleted on server1.example.com should also be deleted on mirror.example.com. The --exclude option means that these files/directories should not be mirrored; e.g. --exclude=**/error means "do not mirror /var/www/error". You can use multiple --exclude options. I have listed these options as examples; you can adjust the command to your needs. Have a look at
another URL to read,
