Hi all,
a customer ran into an issue using XCP for NFS v 1.3-8 with the following output:

xcp: ERROR: nfs3 RENAME 'file.par' in 'targetserver:/data_new/folder1': nfs3 error 2: no such file or directory Syncs were successful before the failure, and no changes were made in the meantime.
I am aware of the stale filehandle which causes operations with folder2 to fail, and files that aren't on the target server can't be removed or renamed either. But are they the result of xcp's "Incomplete sync index"? How can that happen and how do I prevent this in future runs?
Thanks a lot in advance!
