I have a lot of servers which my scripts connects to and gathering data
from them by SFTP. But one of servers has very slow connection. When i
tried to connect to it from command line by ssh it took about 3
minutes. I instantiate Net-SFTP-Foreign with following parameters:
my %args = (
host => $self->{server},
user => $config{sshUser},
timeout => 30,
more => [
-i => $config{sshIdentifyFile}
]
);
$self->{sftp} = Net::SFTP::Foreign->new($self->{server}, %args);
When scripts trying to connect to that extremely slow server, it takes
more than 30 seconds, and after 30 secs timeout is reached scripts
exits abnormally with following exit code: "Alarm clock: 14"
As a result script exited before it should and all data is lost :(.
Please save my ass :(((
