I intend getting a vps server real soon for some of the resource-intensive sites I manage. I live in a country where 1Mb/s internet speed is a luxury and constant uninterrupted electricity, a myth.
Here's What I'm Trying To Achieve:
- How to get the files and directories copied from the source server to the destination server over SSH / SCP.
- How to still have the files copying between the servers even if my internet disconnects or power supply goes out.
- How to get the files still copying between both servers if I close my Terminal window.
I'm aware of copying over scp but it doesn't look like it keeps working when I go offline.
scp
process may be killed or not. Anyway, I recommendrsync
at any time of the day for copying a lot of data.
