The -p is included with the -a option, so that won't make a difference.
Is there some reason you need to use the -H option? The rsync man page says:
-a, --archive archive mode; equals -rlptgoD (no -H,-A,-X)
I'm not sure of the ramifications of using -a and -H together.
Do you perhaps mean to use -h instead?
