Single files support about fpart HOT 5 CLOSED

Hello,

Yes, you can use fpsync to generate single-file partitions :

$ fpsync -f 1 /src/ /dst/

If used in conjunction with several sync jobs (-n x), you will be ably to sync x files in parallel.

Hi Ganel,

it actually says the Source directory doesn't exist.

(venv) root@34253A1:~# fpsync -f 1 /root/1GB.bin rsync://rsyncdaemon/plots/
Source directory does not exist (or is not a directory): /root/1GB.bin

Best,

Hello Julian,

Right, fpsync is designed to work with directories only. You would have to play with fpart options (through fpsync's '-O' switch) to include wanted files only (maybe something like -O '-y *.bin') from src dir. But there seem to be a unwanted expansion when passing the wildcard character to fpart. I'll check that and try to come with a fix ASAP.

Best regards,

Hello Julian,

I've just pushed a fix for that long-standing issue. Can you try something like :

$ fpsync -f 1 -O '-y|*.bin' /root/ rsync://rsyncdaemon/plots/

It will scan /root/ for files named *.bin and generate single-filed partitions.

I hope this will answer what you were looking for.

Best regards,

Closing for now, thanks again for your report!
