I am using this to backup home to an external SD card. The backups appear successful, but because the nature of a live "home" I am getting the following in the logs for several file conditions:
rsync warning: some files vanished before they could be transferred (code 24)
I think these are benign, but would like to clean these up for future log review.
I read elsewhere that the rsync option: --ignore-missing-args would prevent this, but am not sure how to properly add this. I tried as a user-define command, and this is what it looks like when I validate: https://i.imgur.com/tyvGbW5.png
as soon as a task starts to run, LB will first calculate which files are going to be transfered. After that, the real transfer takes place.
If in between these 2, a file is deleted then you will get this message. This is normal many times and it useually affects temp files or various cache.
I think the best way to eliminate this type of message is to exclude specific directories from the transfer (and the calculations of course). A look at the logfile (or the live feedback) will help for that. As I said, these files are usually temporary or cache files. You can even send me the logfile so I can have a look if you want to.

Hi Kenny,

The argument --ignore-missing-args is not a valid rsync argument according to the man page:
