;Issue : [[amdump]] fails to backup large DLEs. It fails with "Connection reset by peer" error
#REDIRECT [[Mesg read: Connection reset by peer]]
message
 
;Configuration : iptables (firewall packet filter) is configured on the Amanda clien
 
;Cause : iptables was breaking the TCP connections (set up by Amanda client and server for
backing up the data) because it was idle. During backup of large DLEs (~10GB data), the connections
will remain idle for a long time.
 
;Solution : Increase tcp keepalive probes
 
echo 90 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_keepalive_time
