Hello,

Thanks for your help. My problem is now solved. I provide you my
solution. It could help someone in the future :

Recall : an Itanium (4 ways) node booted on the network with a
systemimager Linux kernel release 2.4.9 provided by oscar-1.3

If i boot the node with 4 GBytes of RAM, rsync meets some problems
during big transfers with the rsync daemon on the server node (see the
error messages in my previous mail)
If i boot the node with only 512 MBytes of RAM, rsync works fine.

For this, i modified the /tftpboot/elilo.conf file by adding the
following line : 
        append="mem=512M"

Best regards,

Cédric Lambert
