APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
When using a FTP server front side handler with an idle timeout configured, the timeout can cause the data connection to be closed even if the data connection is actively being used to send data.
Local fix
Set the idle timeout to 0 (disabled).
Problem summary
Affected is the use of FTP server front side handler with an idle timeout. When transferring a large file for which the transfer takes longer than the idle timeout, the control connection might close unexpectedly. This behavior is not expected by applicable RFCs and might confuse the FTP client causing file transfer to fail.
Problem conclusion
Fix is available in 7.1.0.15, 7.2.0.12, 7.5.0.6, 7.5.1.5 and 7.5.2.3 For a list of the latest fix packs available, please see: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21237631
