Linux Synching files using rsync utility

Iam using rsync tool to sync files from one linux server to other linux server, however it takes huge time to finish it. so I tried running multiple instances of rsync for different directories in background and it resulted in the below mentioned error.

rsync comand used:

/usr/bin/rsync -acrz ${ABS_DIR} -e /usr/bin/rsh ${TARGET}:${TARGET_DIR} &

the below error was thrown,

poll: protocol failure in circuit setup
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(463) [sender=2.6.8]


Please let me know whether is it possible to run multiple instances from one server to another server and if it is possible, please guide me...

ThanksSmilie

The network connections are fine...

NAME
dtc-xen_migrate - migrate a VPS to another Xen server SYNOPSIS
LOCAL_VPS_ID DESTINATION_HOSTNAME [ DEST_VPS_ID ] DESCRIPTION
dtc-xen_migrate This shell script is a part of the dtc-xen package that is to be used by the dtc panel to manage a Xen VPS server. Note that you need rsync in both the source and the destination dom0. This script is used to move the content of a Xen virtual machine (VM) managed with dtc-xen to another Xen server of the same type. The VM destination will first be prepared, then the local VM will be shut down, then it's content will be transfered over using rsync. Note that this is NOT a live migration, and down time of approximatively the time needed for the rsync will occure. PARAMETERS
LOCAL_VPS_ID The DTC-Xen id of the VM, from 00 to 99. DESTINATION_HOSTNAME Destination Xen server hostname to migrate to. DEST_VPS_ID Destination DTC-Xen id of the VM, from 00 to 99. EXAMPLE
dtc-xen_migrate 19 alpha.example.com 21 This will migrate the content of xen19 on the local machine to the destination server alpha.example.com using xen21 as VM name. SEE ALSO
