I'm getting nfs errors when trying to rsync to eclipse.org.  For instance,

drops/I20101206-1300/eclipse-SDK-I20101206-1300-aix-gtk-ppc.zip
rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes: phase "unknown" [sender]: Broken pipe (32)
drops/I20101206-1300/noperf/
drops/I20101206-1300/performance/
rsync: write failed on "/home/data/httpd/download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/I20101206-1300/eclipse-SDK-I20101206-1300-aix-gtk-ppc.zip": Stale NFS file handle (116)
rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at receiver.c(298) [receiver=3.0.4]
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (148408 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(359)

"Stale NFS file handle" would imply that the file being transferred, or one of its parent directories, has been erased by another process.  Is it possible that you have a concurrent rsync running, or that some other job manipulated those files somehow?

Yes, this may have been the problem. It seems to be working today. thanks.
