SFTP Uprocs fail with Error in the SSH layer

Products

• CA Automic Dollar Universe

Issue/Introduction

Suddenly, we notice some failures of uprocs that send files from our NFS to FTP with error: Error detail: Error in the SSH layer 

Other uprocs run fine with similar action.

The sftp-connection between both nodes runs fine (linux)

Any idea what can be the cause of this?

Cause

The problem was that the inodes of the target SFTP server were full for that filespace ( this could be checked with df -i)

Environment

Release : 6.x

Component : DOLLAR UNIVERSE

Area: SFTP Uprocs

Resolution

Cleanup the filesystem with the inodes full issue.
