Yes, I added that to the host file of the VCenter and as an entry on their internal DNS server. The name resolves when the converter attempts to connect when selecting the destination. However, I did...

If it's throwing an error when setting the rsync flags, you can try commenting out the if clause except for the lines you need to use (the ones that set the flags for rsync 2). That's done for you in...

Is this secure using a lower version of Rsync than what the script is originally looking for ? I cannot permit myself to fuckup the machine and break it, as its a live machine running important mailing...

Yes, rsync will still use SSH as its transport mechanism with the older version. The script was written with older and newer versions of rsync in mind. It should normally have detected your rsync...

There are files excluded from the sync, but those should just be system files (so you don't inadvertently break the new server or change its ssh host key). Line 640 in the script is where you can find...

You can edit the script at line 641 to change the "EXCLUDE_LIST" variable's contents so it doesn't exclude the directories you want to bring over. If you want to play with it more, that script can use...
