Couple of scenarios to rule out: 1) going from disk1 a -> 500G file b->empty to disk2 a=>empty b->500G file ---- --delete = --delete-during which means it won't try to delete a later encountered directory until it gets to copying 'b'. If your disk is 750G, your copy will die in the middle of copying "a". Maybe delete-before would be better, though theoretically less safe, in that you might be deleting 500G before the copy on disk1 has safely made it to disk2. But if you are tight on disk space.... 2) If your target disk is more fragmented, then it will need more free-space extents(clusters) -- rather than 1 range with 2G, it might need 20 ranges with 100MB each. That means disk 2 will need more "indirect" space to hold the extra ranges. Those are possibilities that come to mind off the top of my head... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
