Hello,
We are receiving err -956 error when we connect from one informix instance to another. It is working for long time and suddenly this error started showing up.
No changes are made in any files(/etc/hosts.equiv or sqlhosts) by Unix or DBA teams.
We fixed the issue once by bouncing one DB server for first time. it worked for few days and started showing up after few days.
Second time, i fixed the issue by setting up REMOTE_SERVER_CFG file dynamically without bouncing for an informix instance. Now it looks stable from a week.
However i wonder what is causing the issue? whatelse should be checked from Unix or DB side.
Instances are running on VMs. Any changes in underlying hardware or Vcenter would cause this issue?
Informix V12.1
