Rsync

限制頻寬

限制傳檔的網路頻寬

--bwlimit=30000

30000 = 30000 KB/ps = 30 MB/ps

Dry Run

rsync -avh -n <source> <destination>

檔案與資料夾同步

本機內不同個資料夾做複製或同步

rsync -avh --delete --exclude='path1/to/exclude' --exclude='path2/to/exclude' source/ destination
rsync -avh /source/*.log /destination

• source/ 來源目錄+斜線 會複製目錄內的內容
• source 來源目錄不加斜線 會複製整個目錄
• --delete 來源檔案被刪除時也會同步到目的端
