Is it possible to move files from one tower to another using putty and not using a windows machine.

Is there a remote move command or something?

 

Thanks

I belive you could use rsync or mc [midnight commander]

You would need to remote mount the disks on one of server or the other. Then you can copy.

 

SEE HERE for instructions.

 

The move command can be run from a screen session (like preclear).

 

 

 

 

I run rsync as a daemon on the second machine and then use rsync on the first to update files on the second as needed.

 

On the second I have this in my go script...

 

#rsync daemon
rsync --daemon --config=/boot/config/rsyncd.conf

 

Then I have this in the rsync.conf file on the second machine

uid             = nobody
gid             = users
use chroot      = no
max connections = 4
pid file        = /var/run/rsyncd.pid
timeout         = 600
log file        = /var/log/rsyncd.log
incoming chmod	= Dug=rwx,Do=rx,Fug=rw,Fo=r

[mnt]
    path = /mnt
    comment = /mnt files
    read only = FALSE

 

Then to update files on the second from the first I run something like this on the first (I run from the console, but could be from putty is preferred).

 

#!/bin/bash
cd /mnt
rsync -av --delete --timeout=600 --progress /mnt/disk1/* BackupServer::mnt/user/Disk1-backup

 

This backs up files from disk 1 on the main server to a share called Disk1-backup on the second machine.  Of course you can play with the rsync parameters as much as you like to achieve whatever you need.  The server name (BackupServer) would be your own, of course.

Great... thanks for the replies
