It can also produce partitions with a given number of files or a + limited size. + + Once generated, partitions are either printed as file lists to stdout + (default) or to files. Those lists can then be used by third party programs. + + Fpart also includes a live mode, which allows it to crawl very large + filesystems and produce partitions in live. Hooks are available to act on + those partitions (e.g. immediatly start a transfer using rsync(1)) + without having to wait for the filesystem traversal job to be finished. + Used this way, fpart can be seen as a powerful data migration tool. + ''; + homepage = "http://contribs.martymac.org/"; + license = licenses.bsd2; + platforms = platforms.unix; + maintainers = [ maintainers.bjornfor ]; + }; +} |
