hotcopy: what happens if commit occurs while running?

Hello,

do commits that occur while hotcopy is running (I expect mine to run
11-12 hours) get copied as well?

Thanks,
Dave

Thanks Jon,

our binary commits are in a different repo than our source commits.

Previously we were using CVS which enabled us to delete from the
binary repo for builds that were no longer needed.

Now with Subversion, we do not have that ability and subsequently have
almost filled the server and waiting for shipment of a new one with
more space.

Thanks,
David

Just some hints. Consider putting builds at a different SVN repos than  
the code and other data.
Consider putting builds that are unrelated (if you have that) at  
different SVN repos than other builds.

I have to migrate a repo that is 175GB. I have run a test with a 250MB
repo and extrapolated the time for the production repo.

Our build process commits all built binaries (which is why it is so
large) and we are almost out of space (with no way to delete) which is
why we have to move to a new server.

Thanks,
Dave

Not all of it: the hotcopy will copy the state of the repository when
it was started as a standard guarantee, but changes after that might
not end up in the hot copy (most won't).

Why do you expect your hotcopy to run 12 hours? Are you copying over
net connections? If so, wouldn't it be better to make a local copy
first and then transfer that snapshot over the (slower) network to the
target disk/destination?

Bye,

Erik.
