It looks like the backuppc side thinks the remote side disconnected. If rsync is actually still running on the client it is probably some sort of network issue like a nat gateway or stateful firewall timing out. If rsync did exit it could be out of memory or a filesystem or disk error. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Developer Access Program for Intel Xeon Phi Processors Access to Intel Xeon Phi processor-based developer platforms.
