Cause

1. Make sure there is no Network problem or latency between Spectrum OneClick Server and Servicedesk. 
2. Run Wireshark or Tcpdump on OneClick Server. Capture only the packets between OneClick Server and Servicedesk Server. 
You will see TCP connection are not closing proper and packets with RESET Flag from ServiceDesk to OneClick. 
 
3) In the below screenshot. Spectrum expects a ServerStatusReturn value as ZERO. But we see the Servicedesk is sending the value as 1. Because of which Spectrum drops the connection.
