It may be worth having a look at the switch interface statistics for that server. Such repeatable errors must be showing up somewhere other than the servers.
Also, can you replicate the problem locally?

>>> Yes, these are on large file transfers.  Yes, they are occasional, and random.  But I had to restart a large (41-ish GB?) file transfer 3 times last week due to repeated errors.  A typical nightly backup results in 160 GB or so to transfer, and lately, the rsync fails (somewhere along the way) more often than not.
