Hi Vaish,

Are you able to connect to the CODI server(secondary node) manually. I mean without using the script.

Senthil,
I am very new to this CD. Can you please tell me how to manually check whether the connection between the machines (Unix to unix ) are proper before sending the file ?

[Muthukumar_5]

Check the connectivity to other machine as,

# ping
# nslookup

# traceroute


First one of ping has to be successfull to have connection to remote machine.

Hi Vaish,

You can do this easily pinging from one to another.

# ping

# traceroute will help you to see how the packets traverse.

Hi,
I can ping, traceroute the remote machine. But how to transfer the file between these machines ?

[Arunvijai_4]

Hello,

If you want to transfer files between unix machines, there are several ways to do..

1) FTP

2) SCP

3) RCP

4) NFS

You can choose any one of these methods..
FTP will be easier to do.

Hi,
I need a program to transfer the files using connect direct only. Because CD is the interface between these machines. This is used for coding purpose. So I can't go for ftp and other ways.

Hi vaish,

what i meant of manual testing was to follow the link below, where they do the same as far as C:D app goes.

Ofcourse n/w connnectivity is prime importance between the pnode and snode, that I assumed was fine. But any check the n/w connectivity aswell.

The problem with C:D is ,it is a third party tool for file transfers for coding in the program, that is not widely used. You should be able to find some solutions by searching google.
