Anyone care to comment on the following?

I have 2 rp2400 machines each with an Infotrend 500G array
and running HP-UX 11.11. I want one to be
a redundant mirrored copy of the other. Every night I sync them
up with the rsync utility, http://rsync.samba.org.

So far, I exclude the following files:

/etc/rc.config.d/netconf
/etc/utmp
/etc/opt/resmon
/dev

Everything seems OK but rsync spits out a couple of
hundred unexplained errors every night.

Anyone care to comment on this method of mirroring?
Are there more files I should be excluding?
Thanks for any observations, hints, suggestions, etc..
