map_ptr warning

[Jennifer Lu]

Dave,

Yes, both machines are in the same version, here is the output:

On Solaris5.8: nile-ha1
%rsh nile-ha1 rsync --version
rsync  version 2.5.3  protocol version 26
Copyright (C) 1996-2002 by Andrew Tridgell and others
<http://rsync.samba.org/>
Capabilities: 64-bit files, socketpairs, hard links, symlinks, batchfiles, no 
IPv6,64-bit system inums, 64-bit internal inums


On Solaris 5.5.1:

64-bit system inums, 64-bit internal inums
% rsh gopher rsync --version
rsync  version 2.5.3  protocol version 26
Copyright (C) 1996-2002 by Andrew Tridgell and others
<http://rsync.samba.org/>
Capabilities: 32-bit files, socketpairs, hard links, symlinks, batchfiles, no 
IPv6,32-bit system inums, 64-bit internal inums

I ran "rsync -avSH --delete gopher:/export/mdisk14/cafe-regres/ 
/global/dg01/vmdisk009/cafe-regres/", it went successfully. 

Only with -avzSHc option, rsync failed with map_ptr warning. 

Thanks for the help,
Jennifer
