What about files changing?
Authored by: lukasha on Jan 24, '08 08:09:42AM

From what I can tell, as the other person said, Time Machine only adds and deletes and doesn't change any files in the backup. And you should probably schedule your rsync for after hours and since no files should be changing when the user isn't there, TM shouldn't interfere with the rsync. But if someone with more knowledge than me can post the commands to check if TM is currently backing up, wait until it's finished, turn it off, run the rsync command, then turn TM back on, I'll gladly add it. I would like to be sure also that the backups are solid.
