want to do a recursive copy of my home drive to a external drive - in order to make a backup
and i want to use pv - to have an overview on the progress.
why does this fail
pv -p -e -r -b r martin/* > /run/media/martin/HDDRIVE2GO/medion/medion2017/
this command fails -
questions :
- do i use too much parameter within the above mentioned pv-command?
- besides this: how would i write this command with rsync
- would i have an overview - in rsync too:
there is such an option: showing-total-progress-in-rsync-is-it-possible
#> ./rsync -a --info=progress2 /usr .
