Rsync over SSH - (40MB/s over 1GB NICs)

The fastest remote directory rsync over ssh archival I can muster (40MB/s over 1gb NICs)

This creates an archive that does the following:

rsync (Everyone seems to like -z, but it is much slower for me)

  • a: archive mode - rescursive, preserves owner, preserves permissions, preserves modification times, preserves group, copies symlinks as symlinks, preserves device files.
  • H: preserves hard-links
  • A: preserves ACLs

Script to quickly scan the S.M.A.R.T. health status of all your hard drive devices in Linux (at least all the ones from /dev/sda to /dev/sdzz). You need smartctl installed on your system for this script to work, and your hard drives need to have S.M.A.R.T. capabilities (they probably do).
#!/bin/bash
# install the smartctl package first! (apt-get install smartctl)
if sudo true
then
true
else
echo 'Root privileges required'
