Hi,
I've a server at 2.6.18-128.1.6.el5xen x86_64. No problems using rsync
for backup nightly. Same for another server running 32 bit
2.6.18-92.1.13.el5xen.
Checking, I see that 2.6.18-128.2.1.el5 is available. Have you tried
upgrading to that?
We just tried it last night and it exhibits the same problem. Reverting
to the previous kernel (before the one we are running now - can't recall
the version off the top of my head) fixes it. There's something amuck
with the newer kernels but it's way above my head to troubleshoot.
Are you using 32 or 64 bit? Rsync isn't likely the issue, but perhaps
volume of net or disk traffic being moved is. Have you tried limiting
the bandwidth (either bwlimit or tc) to see if this makes a difference?
I hadn't considered limiting the bandwidth. Thanks - I'll try that.
Jon
