You have to issue the following. Get to your /home directory: cd /home once there change your rsync command to: <pre><tt>rsync -av . /powervault Chuck Hale </tt></pre> Jim Kronebusch <jim@winonacotter.org> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> I can't seem to find my notes for syntax to rsync my /home to another drive. We purchased a new PowerVault 220S and are moving from a SATA RAID over to this to fix speed issues. I want to rsync /home to /powervault, then unmount /home and /powervault and remount /powervault as /home, make sense? Anyhow I issued "rsync -av /home /powervault" and it is creating /powervault/home/allmydata, and I want /powervault/allmydata. What switch or trailing slashes am I missing?
