Re: SUSE FTP Server issue

2015-05-07 Thread Mainframe Mainframe
Today  I tried monitoring FTP server while running install script for z/VM
install and found interesting things.
So, while coping MAINT190 (190) DISK  from DVD, we getting IO error.
Now there can we two reason

1) Either DVD media is bad
Solution : I copied DVD content into local disk space to see, if copy
process getting is successful and it was.

2) disk, where we coping data from DVD during the install is bad.
  Solution : I tried swapping the RES volume address with some other disk
address and tried installing it but I am getting same error.

 fix your problem.  60 seconds is a long timer.  You probably are
 having a total hang at some point, so increasing a timer probably
 won't help, but it won't hurt either.

 You misunderstood what I said about netstat.  Your want to do
 netstat commands while your ftp is going so you can see the port
 numbers in the REMOTE column.  NOTHING is happening at
 the time you did the netstat below.  Would be best to put the
 netstat in a script and put a one second delay between commands.

 Only reason for netstat is to see if you are hanging on one
 particular remote port number.  Your netstat below only shows
 local port numbers because there are no remote connections
 active at

Is that your only option?

I recommend putting the ckd files on a USB and loading it that way if you
are going through hmc.

I have also brought the files down to one mod 9. Not sure exactly what your
situation is.

I don't know what /dev/hda is on your computer.  Since it's /dev/hda and not 
/dev/hda1 I'm guessing it's a DVD reader.  If that is the case, then creating a 
new physical DVD might help.  If it doesn't then the problem may be in the DVD 
reader itself.

 Now, I am not left with any more solution I can think now. Please suggest.

Hardly.  You could do any of the following:
1. Upload the files from the DVD to z/VM and use the z/VM FTP server to provide 
the files to the installation routine.
2. Insert the DVD into the HMC DVD reader and use the z/VM FTP server to 
provide the files to the installation routine.
3. Replace the DVD drive on the PC.
4. Use another system that is running an FTP server.  That might even be a z/OS 
system.

Hello Donald,
   Thanks for reply. I checked for my FTP server from
# netstat -antp |grep listen -i

So, in xinetd, we have

 # cat /etc/xinetd.d/vsftpd

#server_args =

#log_on_failure  += USERID
#nice= 10
}


Now, my query is do I need to add the parameter you mentioned in last
response in this vsftpd file.

accept_timeout
The timeout, in seconds, for a remote client to establish connection with a
PASV style data connection.
Default: 60

connect_timeout
The timeout, in seconds, for a remote client to respond to our PORT style
data connection.
Default: 60

data_connection_timeout
The timeout, in seconds, which is roughly the maximum time we permit data
transfers to stall for with no progress. If the timeout triggers, the
remote client is kicked off.
Default: 300

idle_session_timeout
The timeout, in seconds, which is the maximum time a remote client may
spend between FTP commands. If the timeout triggers, the remote client is
kicked off.
Default: 300

We contacted network team as well, But no solution till now. I am really
not able to find why FTP failing only while coping  MNT190 disk.

  We using SLES 9.2 with xinetd FTP server running under that.  I checked
  config file but I couldn't find any such parameter to increase session or

 Now, my query is do I need to add the parameter you mentioned in last
 response in this vsftpd file.

 accept_timeout
 The timeout, in seconds, for a remote client to establish connection with a
 PASV style data connection.
 Default: 60

 connect_timeout
 The timeout, in seconds, for a remote client to respond to our PORT style
 data connection.
 Default: 60

 data_connection_timeout
 The timeout, in seconds, which is roughly the maximum time we permit data
 transfers to stall for with no progress. If the timeout triggers, the
 remote client is kicked off.
 Default: 300

 idle_session_timeout
 The timeout, in seconds, which is the maximum time a remote client may
 spend between FTP commands. If the timeout triggers, the remote client is
 kicked off.
 Default: 300

 We contacted network team as well, But no solution till now. I am really
 not able to find why FTP failing only while coping  MNT190 disk.

That's nonsense, Mainframe Mainframe.   They found *something*.  Either
the tcp window closed all the way (to zero) and FTPGET couldn't persuade
it to re-open, or vsftpd stopped transmitting *all* data.  Either of those
results is useful information.  At the very least could at least have run
tcpdump on your ftp server.

If that's all the messages you got, then you have a worse problem.
Whenever FTPGET gives RC= -111, it always issues a message.  Always.   But
I don't see it.

Double check your vsftpd logs (and /var/log/messages) to see if the server
issued any messages or Linux issued any messages about vsftpd.

But no one can tell you how to solve the problem since we don't know
what's causing it.  We can *guess*, but you can do that on your own.

To get our help, you need to supply us with information.  Get the tcpdump
packet trace from your Linux server, run it through wireshark and see
what's happening.  If you don't know how to do that, you need to learn,
and here's your opportunity.  Everyone in this business needs to learn
something about how TCP/IP works.

When I teach at conferences or am speaking to a client, I ask How many of
you here are network engineers?  A hand or two will go up.  My response:
No, all of you are.   And this is why.

For giggles you might try running your FTP as a listen server instead of
being started by xinetd.

listen=YES

 The parameters would go in your vsftpd config file which is probably

 As I said, I don't think increasing timers from 60 or 300 is going to
 fix your problem.  60 seconds is a long timer.  You probably are
 having a total hang at some point, so increasing a timer probably
 won't help, but it won't hurt either.

 You misunderstood what I said about netstat.  Your want to do
 netstat commands while your ftp is going so you can see the port
 numbers in the REMOTE column.  NOTHING is happening at
 the time you did the netstat below.  Would be best to put the
 netstat in a script and put a one second delay between commands.

 Only reason for netstat is to see if you are hanging on one
 particular remote port number.  Your netstat below only shows
 local port numbers because there are no remote connections
 active at that time.

You might also write a small script that redirects netstat -an  file.log 
every 1 second or so
to see what remote port number you continually fail on.  Then check the 
firewall, iptables,
passive port range, etc in regards to that port number.

Neither Alan nor I are saying it's a problem with firewall _rules_.  Rather 
something to do with timeouts, traffic, etc.  You really need to ask to have
