Hello,
Thanks for your help. Following your answers, I tried the same
experiences with rsync 2.5.5 on the client side and on the server side :
i have always an error but it's better now because this error is always
the same at each run :-)
rsync -av --numeric-ids 102.1.1.104::ia64-boot/mkdosfs /tmp/ is still OK
rsync -av --numeric-ids 102.1.1.104::oscarimage/ /a/ fails with the
following error message :
On the client node side:
------------------------
receiving file list ... overflow : flags=0x45 l1=0 l2=203336
lastname=ONETARY
ERROR: buffer overflow in receive_file_entry
rsync error: error allocating core memory buffers (code 22) at
util.c(238)
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Your autoinstall has failed. Please send the above messages to
systemimager-discuss at lists.sf.net
On the server side:
-------------------
rsync: error writing 4096 unbuffered bytes - exiting : connection reset
by peer
rsync error: error in rsync prototcol data stream(code 12) at io.c(463)
I have not managed to find out the problem. Does anyone have an idea on
this problem ?
Could it be a problem with the NIC driver when my client node is booted
over the network or a problem coming from my hub (Centre COM MR 820 TR)
? Anything else ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Best regards,
