Hi, We use rsync 2.6.0 version to synchronize data for a while till recently we got an error in one directory : ERROR: out of memory in init_hard_links rsync error: error allocating core memory buffers (code 22) at util.c(115) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (8 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(189) The rsync options were used -avSH, can you help? Thanks. Thanks, Jennifer
