Rsync backup job reports false success

After taking on the 6.10.4 firmware update on both local and remote NAS boxes, my daily rsync-over-ssh backup job reports a false success.  It returns immediately, but no files are transferred or updated.  Here's the e-mailed log.

The sending NAS box is a ReadyNAS 314; the receiving NAS box is a ReadyNAS 104.

 

Ominously, the release notes for 6.10.4 allege that there were bug "fixes" related to this.  Has anybody else seen issues?  Should I downgrade back to 6.10.3?

      This has been reported already.  For now the best thing to do is drop back to 6.10.3.
