I presume you mean the copy/transfer process did not do its job
correctly, Tom. Therefore, I would advise using a script that compares
the MD5/SHA1 sums of the origin and destination files and retries the
copy/transfer process before returning an exit status to the server
(archive_command call). Do you think this would suffice?
