FTP at receiver side Problem

[Former Member]

Hello,

I will explain clearly now about my scenario. I have configured an FTP receiver channel with all the details.

I am trying the scenario in cluster system (i.e, the target system). It has different IP addresses for both the servers in the cluster (means it has two nodes, Node-A and Node-B).

It should connect like this,

FTP/File Channel -- > Node-A ---> Use IP1 address --- > FTP server - A

If Node-A is down and Node-B is up then,

FTP/File Channel -- > Node-B---> Use IP2 address --- > FTP server - B

When there is a failover from Node-A to Node-B, the FTP/File comm. Channel still points to the Node-A only rather than Node-B. It doesnot even query the DNS server for the IP address of target server which is basically changed after a failover .

And if we fail back to Node-A then it successfully connects to that and runs fine.

Or when we restart the XI all over again then it connects to Server - B using the IP2 address.

We are having problem while doing the restart again and again.

Can we have a possible sollution for this.

We are in very urgent situation..

Thanks,

Hi Arun,

It was configured as perFileTransfer only. But was not working. After that i have changed it to 'permanantly' mode.

But still same situation.

Help me with other option.

Please its effecting me severly..

Thanks,

Hi,

May it will be done by your basis team. Generally this scenario will be done at HADR time. You can try this with reverse DNA propagation. like when you did transfrom your production system to Acceptance.
