Ryan,
I'm not sure what you expect to happen
Hi,
I’m trying to rsync from an IBM SONAS, that has no POSIX ACLs.
I thought that without the –p flag, this should still work, and the destination
will just inherit permissions, however, it doesn’t.
My source directory on the SONAS looks like:
~$ ls -la /net/sonas/directory
d- 2 user grou
the destination, which is what it
should check. I wrote a hack to check if fd corresponds to a device instead
(simple code changes below), which seemed to make things work although it
should be coded more cleanly. Thanks.

Your log file indicates that rsync is indeed working as designed
finding lots of data matches:
Literal data: 123736377 bytes
Matched data: 17889663500 bytes
This means that rsync only had to transfer 118 MB instead of 16+ GB.
It does this by trading CPU and disk operations for network bytes
