Hello list members,
I've come up against an rsync problem which I hope someone here can
help me with.
Running rsync to transfer a relatively large number of files causes
rsync to freeze during transfer. I'm running rsync from the command
line, no daemon or any such stuff. This is the command:
# rsync -a -e ssh /usr2 rmach:/smach --verbose --stat
There is no error message, the transfer just stops. There is plenty of
space on the receiving machine. I've tried running rsync through
strace, and the message when transfer stops is:
select(5, [NULL], 4, [NULL], {60,0}) = 0 (timeout)
The file rsync stops at varies, there seems to be no pattern with e.g.
the files being open. No memory problems, no inode-problems, no
max-files problems.
Any help appreciated.
Best regards,
