RHEL dropping tcp connections

RHEL dropping tcp connections

2005-01-13       - By Figueiredo, Charles

 Back


  Hello,

  I'm running systems patched to Update 3, but with the Update 4
kernel loaded to work-around some kswapd issues we've run into on
heavily-loaded systems.

  We have one particular host that drops tcp connections on a
regular basis. I've noticed this with both ssh sessions and sqsh
connections to db systems. There have even been cases where netstat
reports that connections are "established", but when I check the other
servers they show no connection from the host.

  I have verified the hardware aspect: this isn't a duplexity
issue, and the switch or netstat -i shows absolutely no frame errors.
The problem doesn't seem to be layer 2.

  Has anyone experienced this or have any insight here?

  I'll include some data (netstat -i, sysctl -a | grep net,
netstat -s) in case anyone can find anything in it:

  Thanks,

  -charles.
