Yesterday my /EM server had an unexpected restart due to a hardware error but once it was back online my two Control-M/Server where stuck in a unknown state for around 45mins - 1.5hours.
All other components started fine. Network was confirmed to be available.
I didn't spot anything nasty in the logs.
After 30 minutes I restarted one of the /Servers and a few minutes later the /Server became available.
The second /Server isn't a server I can reboot so we waited another 30minutes and eventually it came available by itself without direct intervention. I was restarting services on /EM but I don't think anything could have really forced the /Server to reconnect so I assume something on the /Server re-established the connection?
Does anyone know why /Servers might behave like this?
- 1) Why they didn't immediately reconnect once /EM was back online?
2) Does the /Server re-establish it's connection to the /EM automatically every so often, hence the wait?
Any advice on /Server connection behaviour would be greatly appreciated.
