Hi Ben,
Is there any suggestion, that I can try in our HA Proxy config.
 
Regards,
Alok

I use haproxy for the same purpose. Closing the command channel will not affect 
a transfer in any way, unless you have something else set up wrong.


In other words, the command channel is needed only to START the upload, once 
started the data channel will complete the upload. If the command channel 
closes in the meantime, what does it matter?


I am trying to understand WHY this is a problem, as in my experience closing 
the idle command channel is a GOOD thing with no negative side-effects.
