Hi, I am using cobbler-2.4.0-1.el6. I could import "CentOS v6 u3 64bit" as shown below without using "--rsync-flags" with "cobbler import" command. From /var/log/cobbler/cobbler.log during import time, 'rsync -a' requires more time and as a result more "importing" time. I don't want any updates/continuous updates about "CentOS v6 u3" and also don't want any regular/continuous "sync".
I also need few examples about using "--rsync-flags=RSYNC_FLAGS" with "cobbler import" commnad. Kindly do the needful.
