rsync: different target size
I'm using rsync -aHS to backup some stuff (mostly jpgs and docs from
my home) to an external usb hard drive (same ext3 fs).
After a backup I ran du -s to get a fast check on size and found
source and target to be slightly different.
Even using du -cb or du-cbk size doesn't match. So what's wrong?!
I've noticed some dir size doesn't match:
leo@zazzero:~$ ls -ld /media/toshiba-docs/foto/d50/
drwxr-xr-x 43 leo leo 4096 6 gen 11:17 /media/toshiba-docs/foto/d50/
leo@zazzero:~$ ls -ld /share/foto/d50/
drwxr-xr-x 43 leo leo 69632 6 gen 11:17 /share/foto/d50/
I'd like the size of the backup to be exactly the same and check sync
result with du.
BTW, is there some better fast check I could do to test rsync behavior?
Thanks!
