>From the clients, I currently rsync to two locations... one for the
non-bz2 files and one for bz2 compressed.  I actually put the
non-compressed files in /tmp with rrd which seems to help with
performance, but they will obviously be gone if system crashes.

- Liston

# No delete parameter so can purge local bz2 files
${RSYNC} -va --include '*bz2' --exclude='*' ${ORCADATA}/${IAMSRC}/
orca@${RSYNCSERV}::orcapast/${IAMDEST}/

# RSYNC CURRENT non-bz2 files
${RSYNC} -va --delete --exclude 'orcallator.pid' --exclude '*bz2'
${ORCADATA}/${IAMSRC}/ orca@${RSYNCSERV}::orcanow/${IAMDEST}/
