Hi,
When trying to import data from an ssh remote using “dvc import” I am getting a
ERROR: unexpected error - [WinError 10054] An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host
But only after approx 20% of the files have been downloaded/imported. I tried already reducing the number of thread to -j 1 but no luck. I still get the same error.
Anything I could try?
looking in the auth.log file I found a
“Disconnected by application”
message. Which made me wonder if the default windows sftp closes the connection because of some time-out. But I am not sure how I could increase that time out window. Trying to change time out values on the linux server side but not sure yet if that works.
Not sure if this is likely to be helpful but have you tried to adjust max_sessions from SSH & SFTP?
Thanx. I had a sucessful import of a subdirectory that I wanted to get from the remote after
changing ClientAliveCountMax and ClientAliveInterval on the sshd of the linux server. Now I will try the full data import again. If that fails will try to set max_sessions via dvc. Wondering if the max session limit could be hit if more people try to import/get data from the same ssh remote at the same time.
found the answer to my question 
“Specifies the maximum number of open shell, login or subsystem (e.g. sftp) sessions permitted per network connection.”
so should not depend if more people tried to get the same data
