Thank you for your quick reply. The issue with the timeout command is that it stops rsync 10 seconds after the execution starts. If I have a large file to sync, it won't finish. I could repeatedly run this command with a longer timeout and the --partial option in rsync to resume unfinished transfers, but it wouldn’t be very clean. If you have another idea, I’d be glad to hear it. Otherwise I will go with this option.

Hello, I'm using rsync to backup a windows smb share mounted to my unraid server via the unassigned devices plugin. When rsync is transferring a file and the windows computer is disconnected from the network during the transfer, the rsync hangs indefinitely. I tried using the --timeout option, unsuccessfully (no difference with or without the option...). Here is the command i used in the shell : rsync -av --human-readable --itemize-changes --timeout=10 SMB_SOURCE DEST Where SMB_SOURCE is the path to the mounted smb share and DEST is the path to the unraid share. Any idea of what I'm doing wrong ? Thanks Unraid 6.12.13
