rsync like a pro

I am moving a hefty amount of data to a new ZFS pool due to some corruption and I want to avoid using zfs send/recv for this just to make sure I don't propagate any corrupted data to my new pool.

I've used rsync for simple things before but I needed this to be a little smarter and I wanted to see simple progress without flooding my terminal with a billion filenames.

TLDR

TLDR: rsync -aHAX --chmod=Da+s --info=progress2 --inplace --exclude='encrypted/docker/frigate-media' /tank/ /harbor/

Explanation

-aHAX: Preserves attributes (archive mode, hard links, ACLs, extended attributes). --chmod=Da+s: Ensures the setgid bit is applied to directories. --info=progress2: Provides detailed progress information, including overall data transfer stats. --inplace: Writes directly to the destination file, avoiding temporary files (useful for large files). --exclude='encrypted/docker/frigate-media': Excludes the specified path (relative to the /tank root). /tank/ /harbor/: Ensures the contents of /tank are copied directly into /harbor.
