Can you run a "df -k" on both servers and see if the block counts match up
on each? There was a bug in 0.20 and prior which would show up when the
block sizes didn't match on the local and remote mount. This caused Myth to
think they were different filesystems. I fixed this in trunk after I added
the Storage Groups code, but evidently I never put the fix into the -fixes
branch. I don't know if this fix will be in 0.20.1 though because I think
Jarod has already created the tag for this release.
Until then, I think the only solution is to mount the filesystem remotely
with a different block size.
