Hi<br>
<br>
I need to back up a Lustre filesystem using TSM, and am trying to
find a way to generate a list of changed files from the Lustre
changelogs, so that I can pass this list to dsmc to backup only the
specified files (rather than having TSM traverse the filesystem to
scan for changes).<br>
<br>
It seems like one way to potentially do this, is to run lustre_rsync
using the --dry-run option, and get a list of the files that
lustre_rsync would have copied, and then pass these to dsmc as a
filelist.<br>
<br>
The lustre_rsync documentation says that --dry-run "Shows the output
of <kbd class="Command">lustre_rsync</kbd> commands (<kbd
class="Command">copy</kbd>, <kbd class="Command">mkdir</kbd>,
etc.) on the target file system without actually executing them."<br>
<br>
When I test lustre_rsync with --dry-run and --verbose, the statuslog
file is correctly updated, but I can't get it to show the commands
that would have taken place during a sync - nothing like that is
printed to the screen.<br>
<br>
Any advice for generating a list of changed files would be highly
appreciated!<br>
<br>
Best regards!<br>
<br>
