Replace --devices with -D in $Conf{RsyncArgs} and $Conf{RsyncRestoreArgs}.

That error message is unfortunately pretty general.  It means that
something hung rsync before could gather the file list, likely before it
even attempted to.  If you go to the host summary and view the error log
it might give you more detail on what problem was.  If that doesn't help
try running the RsyncClientCmd by hand on the CLI and see what kind of
error message you get.

Jack,

What does the full XferLOG (not just the error log) for that session say?
