NAME
|
|
----
|
|
lsyncd — a daemon to continously syncronize dircectory trees
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
config file: ::
|
|
{zwsp}*lsyncd* ['OPTIONS'] 'CONFIG-FILE'
|
|
|
|
default rsync behaviour: ::
|
|
{zwsp}*lsyncd* ['OPTIONS'] -rsync 'SOURCE' 'TARGET' ...
|
|
|
|
default rync+ssh bevahior (moves and deletes through ssh): ::
|
|
{zwsp}*lsyncd* ['OPTIONS'] -rsyncssh 'SOURCE' 'HOST' 'TARGETDIR' ...
|
|
|
|
DESCRTIPTION
|
|
------------
|
|
Lsyncd(1) watches a local directory trees event monitor interface (inotify).
|
|
It aggregates and combines events for a few seconds and then spawns one (or
|
|
more) process(es) to synchronize the changes. By default this is rsync(1).
|
|
Lsyncd is thus a light-weight live mirror solution that is comparatively easy
|
|
to install not requiring new filesystems or blockdevices and does not hamper
|
|
local filesystem performance.
|
|
|
|
Rsync+ssh is an advanced action configuration that uses a SSH(1) to act file
|
|
and directory moves directly on the target instead of retransmating the move
|
|
destination over the wire.
|
|
|
|
More fine-grained customizaton can be achieved through the CONFIG-FILE. Custom
|
|
action configurations can even be written from scratch in cascading layers
|
|
ranging from shell scripts to code written in the LUA(1) language. This way
|
|
simplicity can be balanced with powerfullness. See the online manual for
|
|
details on the CONFIG-FILE http://code.google.com/p/lsyncd/wiki/Lsyncd2.0Manual
