We have two (2) servers on a LAN, backup [A] and tjg1 [B]. We want to PUSH file synchronization from [B] to [A]. We are repeatedly this error:
rsync error: timeout in data send/receive (code 30) at io.c(181)
Google has not been kind; nor have the archives to this list.
Perhaps, I am ignorant of the appropriate search criteria?
There are other interesting facts:
[1] There are ~74 GB of files to be regularly synchronized.
[2] This is on an internal LAN; and we have elected to forgo security
processes (e.g., ssh). rsyncd is dynamically started via inetd;
and this problem is repeatable with a minimal rsyncd.conf, such
as:
log file = /var/log/rsyncd.log
syslog facility = daemon
pid file = /var/run/rsyncd.pid
[data]
comment = DATA volume archive
path = /usr/local/backup/archive/DATA/
[3] Historically, these files resided on a netware server; and another
process (NOT rsync) has been successfully backing up these files
to [A]. Now, we want to serve these files from [B]. So, the
first thing was to rsync these files from [A] to [B].
[4] PULLING from [A] to [B] repeatedly succeeds.
[5] PULLING from [B] to [A] repeatedly succeeds.
[6] Notice that this problem chronically manifests itself when one
side to this process begins EMPTY.
[7] The problem repeatedly manifests itself _after_ PUSHING ~2 GB of
files.
[8] Obviously, in production, there will NOT be an empty side to this;
but, until we understand the cause to these failures, our
confidence in this process will be less than ideal ;>
What do you think?

Our capacity for understanding is inversely proportional to how much
