How to install rsync on AIX machine

  • 772

I have a machine running AIX. I'm looking to install rsync on it. Does rsync support AIX? If so, where might I download it?

In case it matters: I will be using rsync to copy a filesystem from my AIX machine to another UNIX machine, so it needs to be compatible with other versions of rsync.

  1. You should download the rsync version from perzl.org. It's a more recent version(3.0.8). It support files with size above 2GB and it is a lot better at synchronizing lot of files. download link
