Host preference change caused error

I made a host preference change on my solaris 9 channel servers. Out of 24 servers 5 did not restart the agent properly and reconnect to the SDS server. This is what I am seeing in the uce_agent.log on the client:

##### uce_agent starting##### Wed Jan 31 16:24:20 EST 2007

##### uce_agent exit on error <255>, try again in 90 sec. #####Wed Jan 31 16:24:43 EST 2007

##### uce_agent starting##### Wed Jan 31 16:26:13 EST 2007

##### uce_agent exit on error <255>, try again in 90 sec. #####Wed Jan 31 16:26:36 EST 2007

##### uce_agent starting##### Wed Jan 31 16:28:06 EST 2007

##### uce_agent exit on error <255>, try again in 90 sec. #####Wed Jan 31 16:28:29 EST 2007

We are running uce version 1.0.3-185

I tried stopping/restarting the agent - still no change.

Any idea how to get these hosts back in uce?

Thanks

Ellen

Hi Ellen, What does the error.log show? Usually the error.log will give better insight into what is going on. It should be in the same dir as the agent.log.-Doug

Here is the error.log output from the agent side:

It looks like the client has a connection to the SDS server on port 8200 that is in CLOSE_WAIT state in netstat.

Dear EllenLets have a look at the port to see , if you would stop the SDS and run on the SDS system# netstat -an | grep 8200then you may start the SDS againSincerely,Mod.
