Did you use a disk deduplicator on the drive? Is there a directory with alot of files in it? How many files are you backing up? If you have MANY hardlinks on a file system, rsync with the --hard-links option has a tendency to croak, leaving tar as the best option. Dirvish has this same issue.

I've got a bit of a strange situation. My backuppc server, which successfully backs up a half dozen or so machines, is unable to backup one particular host. This host is configured the same as all of my other hosts which backup successfully, but after running the rsync process for 8 to 10
