Well, fix that.

Something is causing the transfer to fail. Is 212.119.92.5 and
212.119.93.5 both allowed to transfer data (e.g. allow-transfer
configuration)?

Did you run this on both 212.119.92.5 and 212.119.93.5?

It's somewhat harder to check for temporary errors.

The easiest way, since you say that this is a "test", is to replicate
(i.e. same OS/distro, software versions, configs) your setup on test
VMs (or servers, if you have that), on the same network (e.g. VMs with
private network 10.x.x.x is fine), and see if it always works there.

If yes, then most likely the problem is somewhere in your network
(e.g. firewall).
If no, then the problem is somewhere in your bind configuration.
