dd in the example #4

Closed descala closed 11 years ago

descala commented 11 years ago

In the example 

dd if=/dev/vmsrv1/somevm bs=1M | pv -ptrb | ssh root@vmsrv2 dd of=/dev/vmsrv2/somevm

shouldn't it be somevm-lvmsync instead of somevm?

dd if=/dev/vmsrv1/somevm-lvmsync bs=1M | pv -ptrb | ssh root@vmsrv2 dd of=/dev/vmsrv2/somevm

or is the final result the same as we then transfer all changed chunks?

UnwashedMeme commented 11 years ago

This looks to be the same as issue #3. I believe (perhaps naively) that the final result is the same anyways.

mpalmer commented 11 years ago

Yes, this is the same "problem" as #3.
