A number of people made clever suggestions - thanks!
However, first thing we tried a rerun - it worked.
Then a week later a colleague asked, if the remote
server had been re-booted recently. Guess what, at
the time of the disconnect the server had panic'ed
and re-booted!
Due to the time of the evening users were few or had
gone home, and scheduled night-time jobs had not yet
started. So nobody noticed or bothered to tell us.
The crash dump was apparently inconclusive, maybe a
hardware defect is about to kick in. Anyway, we had
the March 2007 patch bundle installed for starters.
Previous ftp disconnects were during transmission to
a clustered Windows 2003 server, and we had found that
a little Billy-bug contributed to the frequency of
time-outs on large transfers, until the Seattle-OS was
properly patched up.
In about a fortnight the ftp transfer is for real
and on the critical path of a database reorg, so ...
-- Jens Kieffer-Olsen -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: Jens Kieffer-Olsen Sendt: 19. april 2007 15:32 Til: 'hpux-admin@dutchworks.nl' Emne: FTP disconnect Hi all Occasional ftp disconnects happen on our Itanium servers, even though HP11V2 is updated to bundle level September 2006 on all these servers. The other day it happened between two such servers sitting on the same subnet. Ovcer 2½ hours 370 gigabytes of the 499 gigabytes file were successfully transmitted, when apparently the connection terminated with the cryptic message 'netin: Connection reset by peer' seen below. Does anyone have an explanation, or a circumvention? Is this a bug resolved in the March 2007 bundle for HP11V2?
