Package: rsync Version: 3.0.3-2 Severity: normal Running rsync -avHX /foo /bar, where /foo contains several hundred Gb of data, (and a lot of hard links) I eventually get:
rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes [sender]: Broken pipe (32) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (429796854 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(635) [sender=3.0.3] This is on a 32-bit system, where the source file system is reiserfs and the destination file system ext3. I'm surprised that I don't seem to find anything about this problem by searching (I only see mentions of limits on individual file size). -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages rsync depends on: ii base-files 5lenny2 Debian base system miscellaneous f ii libacl1 2.2.47-2 Access control list shared library ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libpopt0 1.14-4 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii lsb-base 3.2-20 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip rsync recommends no packages.
