Question

What is status 98 on a get command about?

Answer

RC LOG_END: Session 1234567: Remote: TEST1111, Add 0, woA 0, Req 1, Dir 0, Del 0, Status 98, disconnected at: DDD MMM DD hh:mm:ss yyyy

This status=98 translates to RC_SSHD_CONNECTION_LOST (0x0062), which was added with SR 1301659, and has not made it to the manual yet:

* 1301659 - (CORE) Enhancement: More descriptive error codes for autoconnects

Customers have requested that autoconnect failures provide more
descriptive error returns, instead of a catch-all F7 (247 - autoconnect
failed), requiring the customer to look at a trace to find the real cause
of the failure.

Resolution: CEU now propagates the first failing autoconnect detail
status for a REMOTE block to the autoconnect summary record so that
meaningful status may be obtained by viewing the autoconnect summary.
If other REMOTE blocks report errors, the detail report must be viewed
to determine the cause.
In addition, a number of new error codes have been defined for SSHFTP
in order to more easily determine the cause for connection failures:

New SSHFTP Auto Connect error codes:
0x00CF "Requested operation denied"
0x00CE "SFTP protocol error: client received bad message"
0x00CD "Connect to server lost"
0x00CC "Autoconnect operation failed"
0x00CB "Requested batch not found"
0x00DF "Server host key verification failed"
0x00DE "Out of system resources (memory, pipes, sems, etc.)"
0x00DD "No server identification received"
0x00DC "Invalid server identification received"
0x00DB "Bad protocol version string from server"
0x00DA "Server protocol version obsolete"
0x00D9 "Internal error: invalid server authentication state"

New SSHFTP Remote Connect error codes:
0x0064 "Could not load [any] host key(s)"
0x0063 "Internal Error: invalid command line args passed to sshd"
0x0062 "Connection to client lost"
0x0061 "Internal Error: server initialization failed"
0x0060 "SFTP protocol error: server received bad message"
0x005F "No system resources available to handle this request"
0x005E "Access to specified mailbox is denied"
0x005D "Specified command syntax is invalid"
0x005C "Requested operation denied"
0x005B "Target batch not found"
0x005A "User authentication failed"
