Using about rsync flags!

[iZeus83]

Greetings!

 

Hi guys, I need help with this command. I need to transfer some folders and files from one server to another and then delete items from first server as a SOURCE on a local system and not on a diferent network. 

 

I think the flag -delete from rsync will do that, so its true?

 

thanks all.

--delete will delete files on the destination that don't exist on source, if I'm understanding your question correctly you want --remove-source-files, this deletes files on source after they are successfully transferred to the destination.

Some time ago, I used this flag but this time I forgot to use it.

 

Thanks to remember me johnnie.
