The following procedure provides a smooth way to recover the homes of the file server, syncronizing the maildir folder before the whole home directory. This way, it is possible to switch the mailserver on before the entire sync is completed.


Connect to the File Server 143.225.151.27

Recover the disk and make the base directory for the ceinge homes:

mkdir /data01/FS /data01/FS/ceinge /data01/FS/ceinge/Home

Connect to the backup server 143.225.151.42

Make the home dirs without descent into them (-pogdv options)

rsync -pogdv -e ssh /media/usbdisk1/FSceinge/ceinge/Home/ root@143.225.151.27:/data01/FS/ceinge/Home/

Start syncronizing the login folder (contains Maildir)

for i in `ls`; \
do \
rsync -avz -e ssh --exclude=*archive* $i/login/ root@143.225.151.27:/data01/FS/ceinge/Home/$i/login/; \
done;

Syncronize the whole home directories without the login directory (already done in the previous step)

for i in `ls`; \
do \
rsync -avz -e ssh --exclude=login* $i/ root@143.225.151.27:/data01/FS/ceinge/Home/$i/; \
done;
