In this case I think it's actually the "symlink" failure causing
the
code 23. "delete_file" failures currently don't cause code 23,
but they
probably should because they result in an incorrect transfer.
Rsync appears to be trying to delete what it believes is a directory
from the destination and make a symlink there instead. However, its
rmdir call fails with EEXIST (File exists), which isn't even listed as a
possible error in my rmdir(2) man page. What is at the
path /drp/fmttcesrv1/snapshots/fs/tce_data/pc-software ? Is it a
directory, as rsync believes? Can you remove the directory manually
with rmdir(1)? If you can't, you have a non-rsync-specific filesystem
problem, while if you can, we'll have to investigate further why rsync
is failing.
