It looks like something is making the process terminate abnormally. With
a -v, you'd get a results blurb, even if there was nothing to do.

I'd suggest a truss (as you're on solaris). If it doesn't show, add
-f
and watch the child process. You should probably try a purely-local copy.
I've run into odd, sudden deaths of rsync processes myself. I gave up on
figuring them out, long ago. Good luck.

Subject: Rsync doing nothing and no error message
Classification:
Hi *
I'm using rsync to mirror software from one Sun Workstation (mecc27) to
the other (mecc29). (solaris 5.7)
worked perfect... 'til 1 week ago !!
Everybody claims nothing has been changed in the configs of the machines
(couldn't find anything, though), but rsync is doing nothing at all. just
after being called it exits without any error message, warning, whatever..
here the log files. I did the sync on mecc27 and mecc29 just in case...
and it showed different behaviour !!!
BTW, the two directories are local to each machine, no NFS.
on mecc27 :
/home/cadmgr/bin/rsync -avuz --delete -v -v -v -v -v -v -v -v -v
/export/home1/Modules mecc29:/export/home3 > 27.log
cmd= machine=mecc29 user= path=/export/home3
cmd=remsh mecc29 rsync --server -vvvvvvvvvvulogDtprz --delete .
/export/home3
local_version=24 remote_version=24
building file list ... make_file(4,Modules)
make_file(4,Modules/share)
make_file(4,Modules/share/init)
make_file(4,Modules/share/init/bash)
make_file(4,Modules/share/init/csh)
make_file(4,Modules/share/init/ksh)
make_file(4,Modules/share/init/perl)
make_file(4,Modules/share/init/sh)
make_file(4,Modules/share/init/tcsh)
make_file(4,Modules/share/init/zsh)
and on mecc29 :
/home/cadmgr/bin/rsync -avuz --delete -v -v -v -v -v -v -v -v -v
mecc27:/export/home1/Modules /export/home3 > 29.log
cmd= machine=mecc27 user= path=/export/home1/Modules
cmd=remsh mecc27 rsync --server --sender -vvvvvvvvvvulogDtprz --delete .
/export/home1/Modules
local_version=24 remote_version=24
as there is no error message displayed at all, I have no idea on what to
check to solve this problem.
Anyone having pointers for me ?????
Thanks
Joel
