Guys, We have been running this batch program for over two years and last
week it has started having an issues. Below is the batch file and script
(without the credentials). We are running 7.2 and on CUME TC17068 that was
installed on 8/27/2017 and we have not installed any PTFs since then.
The problem occurs when pulling the files from the IBM i. (We are using the
same service profile without any changes).
Below is the script that is being executed. All goes well until the second
“get”. See ftp log below. I have found that if I wait two minutes and try
the second “get” it works but then try the third get and it fails. I wait
two more minutes or so and the third “get” works.
I thought it might be some connection issues so I ended and restarted the
FTP service but that had no effect.
This is not my first rodeo and have used this for a few years so I
appreciate the feedback if any of you have a solution or idea of why this
might be occurring
Thanks in advance
Hoss
