ACLs vanish while transferring files

[Daniel Jordan]

Hi all,

I'm trying to transfer data from the old fileserver to the new cluster 
using rsync.
Depending on how I define the source path either the folder acls are 
transfered
or the file acls.

This command preserves the file acls:
# rsync -AavXz --numeric-ids --delete /winhome 
root at 192.168.178.10:/glusterfs

with this command the folder acls are copied:
# rsync -AavXz --numeric-ids --delete /winhome/* 
root at 192.168.178.10:/glusterfs/winhome/


Setup is the following:

OS: old: Debian 11, new: Debian 12

rsync Version on both hosts:

root at fs01:~# rsync --version

What i found out till now is that the rsync option -A should copy all 
acls, wether folder
or file, but it seems, that there are other things that have an impact.
What am i missing here? Any help is highly appreciated.


Best regards
