Swcopy timesout

Hi,

Whenever I try to do a swcopy over a wan link (2mbps), if the depot is large then swcopy fails half the way with error "tcp/ip connection error". Is there any way to increase the timeout / retry parameters in swcopy??

Kindly let me know

Thanks,
Karthik

Re: Swcopy timesout

Hi Karthik,

You can set a parameter rpc_timeout in /var/adm/sw/defaults file. The max it can take is 9.

You can also use it with -x rpc_timeout=9 option. You may also want to consider changing retry_rpc parameter to 2 or 3.

Look at swcopy man page and seearch for the above key words. The man page clearly explains it all.

ndd -h supported
ndd -get /dev/tcp par_name

Check for time out parameter.
There are so many. not sure which one should be set.
