There are 2 rsyncs I can think of:

 (a) rsync from another server (s8) pushing files over the local
network to this machine (s6). rsync writes to the raid drives on s6.

s8 says the rsync completed successfully at 3:04 am (about 4 hours
prior to this error at 7.00 am). 

 (b) There is also a script running inotify which uses rsync to keep
the spare root drive sync'ed. System had update at 5:48 am of a few
packages, and that would have caused an rsync from root on nvme to
sapre on sdg. Most likely this is this one that triggered around 7 am.

  This one runs: 

    /usr/bin/rsync --open-noatime --no-specials --delete --atimes -
axHAX --times  <src> <dst>

Thank you.

This may or may not be related, but this same machine crashed during an
rsync same as (a) above (i.e. s8 pushing files to the raid6 disks on
s6) about 3 weeks ago - then was on 6.6.4 kernel. In that case the
error was in md code.

Thank you again,
