Hi: When I use STAX(3.4.3) to control remote host to execute unzip program("unzip createnv.zip -d /tmp"), I found the following problem. The program seems just hanging there. My control host(on which STAX is installed) is in China, and controlled host is US. When I try putting both control host and controlled host in China, I found it works well. Also when I try putting both control host and controlled host in US, it also works well. Only when I use the machine in China to control the host in US, the process will hang up. What's more, if I do not use STAX, just use STAF on China machine to control remote host in US, It could end normally in about 15 seconds.
The bad network between China and US might be one reason for this problem. But Why STAF could work while STAX could not? By using STAX, there are more communications between control machine and controlled machine than by STAF? Do you have some good ideas how could I avoid it? Thank you. My parameters in STAX to execute command is like following: <function name="startcommand"> <function-prolog> This function is to start jcmts </function-prolog> <function-map-args> <function-required-arg name="command"> the command to be executed </function-required-arg> <function-required-arg name="parameters"> the command parameters </function-required-arg> <function-optional-arg name="machine" default="'local'"> the name of machine where the test process should run </function-optional-arg> <function-optional-arg name="processName" default="'A Process'"> The name of the process. </function-optional-arg> </function-map-args> <sequence> <process name="processName"> <location>machine</location> <command>command</command> <parms>parameters</parms> <env>'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/opt/seagull/build-1.8.1'</env> <stderr mode="'stdout'"/> <returnstdout/> </process> BRs William ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
