FTP_GET Uproc Recursive Looping and Delete Failure since 7.01.11

Products

• CA Automic Dollar Universe

Issue/Introduction

In CA Automic Dollar Universe 7.01.11, FTP_GET type Uprocs running on the 64-bit kit for Linux  may fail or exhibit redundant behavior when downloading multiple files.

Symptoms:

• Redundant Downloads: The Uproc re-scans the source directory after every successful file transfer, attempting to re-download files in an $N(N+1)/2$ pattern.
• Job Abort: If "Action if exists" is set to Abort, the job fails (Status 4) when it detects the local file it just successfully downloaded.
• I/O Overhead: If set to Replace, the job completes but redundantly overwrites the same files multiple times, causing high network and disk overhead.
• Delete Failure: The job log may contain: Delete option failed. Can not delete ftp://... file - The transfer was nevertheless completed.

Environment

• Operating System:  Unix/Linux
