Ha, that would be nice - the problem is intermittent, only in the most serious case (where ls was also affected) could it be reliably repeated (but that situation has long since been cleaned up, haven't had it as bad since). So saying that it failed twice in a month means that the rsync daily backup worked ~28 times in the same period (for reference the backup will cover ~4.3 million files/directories according to locate). No issues so far with the current setup. I'm happy to sit and wait for the real issue to crop up, if it does then I can be more aggressive with a test case. Unless you want me to try and force the issue?
