2500 A secure shell (SSH) session limit for the cluster has been reached.
Explanation
Secure Shell (SSH) sessions are used by applications that manage the cluster. An example of such an application is the command-line interface (CLI). An application must initially log in to the cluster to create an SSH session. The cluster imposes a limit on the number of SSH sessions that can be open at one time. This error indicates that the limit on the number of SSH sessions has been reached and that no more logins can be accepted until a current session logs out.
The limit on the number of SSH sessions is usually reached because multiple users have opened an SSH session but have forgotten to close the SSH session when they are no longer using the application.
User response
- Because this error indicates a problem with the number of sessions that are attempting external access to the cluster, determine the reason that so many SSH sessions have been opened.
- Run the Fix Procedure for this error on the panel at to view and manage the open SSH sessions.
