I'm seeing an error that says there is a broken pipe, but the rsync
command is local to one machine:

/usr/bin/rsync -rltH --stats -D --delete --numeric-ids --whole-file
/data/dir /backup/suse1/suse1-data-dir/ >/tmp/rsync-out 2>&1

The complete contents of the rsync-out file are:

rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 88 bytes [receiver]: Broken
pipe (32)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(1122)
[receiver=2.6.9]


Q3 on http://samba.anu.edu.au/rsync/issues.html implies that the error
message necessarily involves a remote rsync. Does anybody know what the
message means for a local transfer, please?

Thanks, Dave
