--- Comment #10 from Stuart Longland <stua...@longlandclan.yi.org> 2012-12-11 20:47:47 UTC --- Not sure if this is related, but I get more or less the same error message out of rsync 3.0.9 on AMD64 Linux rsyncing from an internal XFS-formatted HDD to an external EXT3-formatted eSATA HDD (i.e. sender and receiver are the same host communicating via pipes). rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 5 bytes to socket [sender]: Broken pipe (32) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (209441 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync error: error allocating core memory buffers (code 22) at io.c(605) [sender=3.0.9] Failed: incremental rsync fails (22) rsync command (I can post the backup script if interested): rsync -aHA \ --link-dest="${LAST_OFFSITE_BACKUP_DIR}" \ ${LAST_ONSITE_BACKUP_DIR}/ ${THIS_OFFSITE_BACKUP_DIR}/ \ 2>&1 || die 8 "incremental rsync fails ($?)" An almost identical command that copies from the live FS (some EXT4, some XFS) to the internal backup HDD (XFS) works fine. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.samba.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
