Hi,

The root cause here is that although the Solaris 10 release has extended 
attributes, the Solaris 10 mv command does not understand the special
SUNWattr_ro/rw files that are included in the OpenSolaris 2008.11
release.

The reason that the rsync does not fail is that it just ignores the
extended attributes.

Regards,

Cindy
