Rsync is not working at root "/" level between two servers
copying daily changes from serverA to serverB using rsync(solaris8, v2.6.2) at root folder level.

Code:
serverA: cd /
rsync -a -vv --delete --checksum --sparse --stats --dry-run --exclude /tmp/ --exclude /proc/ --exclude /devices/ . root@<IP of ServerB>:/

This is generating mainly three debug statements
Code:
deleting <filename|foldername> 
<filename|foldername> uptodate
<filename>

Its not showing what files it is deleting on serverB.
Its not clear why it shows "deleting" even though very old files and folders are same on both sides.
What debug options would give me exactly what files it is deleting on serverB and what files it is copying from serverA?
