    I'm getting error message that the destination drive is full, yet all the folders seems to be the same on both drives. Besides, how can the destination be full if it is a copy of the source and the source is 27% full?

    My exclude paths might not be correct, but should that make a difference?

    I can't see where I'm going wrong, can anyone help?

    Command I am using:

    rsync -avz --exclude=.Trash-0 --exclude=lost+found --delete -e ssh [email protected]:/mnt/backup /optzim

    Source: df -h /dev/sdb1
    /dev/sdb1 463G 115G 325G 27% /mnt

    Destination: df -h /dev/sdc1
    /dev/sdc1 459G 459G 0 100% /optzim

    There also seem to be other things on the destination drive, so you should delete a few unneeded items.
