Good day everyone<BR>
<BR>
we are noting and interesting situation on one of our servers. We have an erlang cluster with the application distributed over multiple servers. <BR>
<BR>
When we do a netstat we see a lot of the following on one specific server:<BR>
<BR>
tcp 0 0 10.27.103.12:epmd 10.27.103.80:52873 TIME_WAIT <BR>
tcp 0 0 10.27.103.12:epmd 10.27.103.80:48273 TIME_WAIT <BR>
tcp 0 0 10.27.103.12:epmd 10.27.103.80:38921 TIME_WAIT <BR>
tcp 0 0 10.27.103.12:epmd 10.27.103.80:59294 TIME_WAIT <BR>
tcp 0 0 10.27.103.12:epmd 10.27.103.80:58333 TIME_WAIT<BR>
<BR>
my question is what could be causing this multitude of connections to epmd from that one specific server. My understanding was that epmd would only require a single connection, <BR>
to communicate between the two epmd server instances.<BR>
<BR>
The one server has 4 erlang nodes running, and the other server has a single erlang node running (mostly yaws).<BR>
<BR>
Erlang version R14B03.<BR>
<BR>
Thank you<BR>
