Hi,
For now I have decided to downgrade to rsync-bpc-3.1.2.0-2.el7.x86_64 from
EPEL. I was unable to reproduce the problem after downgrading rsync-bpc.
Note: I could reproduce the issue on other machines after updating to
rsync-bpc-3.1.3.0-1.el7.x86_64. It seems to me there is a bug in 3.1.3.
Best regards,
Pim Rupert
