Disregard the last update, we were missing a proc

[Joe Baranski]

I haven’t had the opportunity to convert this interface yet.  However, we are currently in the midst of severe backups with it.  Doublechecking the log and errors for the process, we are seeing hundreds of thousands of instances of the following error:

[tps :tps :ERR /0:mt_vitals_oru_ob:01/25/2023 05:27:15] ‘KILL ‘ (returned by ‘validate_hl7ack ‘) does not match { <key> <value> }

I tried digging through the proc but couldn’t find anything specific to that error.

This particular interface is actually rather small, just high volume vitals from a Pt Monitor.  pdl-tcpip is the standard we use on ALL interfaces that aren’t files, so if there’s a chance it goes away that’s gonna cause a lot of conversion work on our end.

 

If we were to convert this particular interface to tcpip with MLLP, would the change be completely transparent to the receiving system or are there additional tweaks that would need to be made?

thanks,

Nope, inhouse server to inhouse server.

Thanks for the quick reply!

I’m checking with our network team on the sniffer.  And the receiving system did send basic log info; for the error above the correlating error is “01/12/23 2308 Connection Closed by Remote Host.”  This has just been an ongoing problem which can result is significant downtimes.

Thanks for the info!  When you mentioned the command you use, is that what your profile uses when logging in normally or when through the cron-like prompt which limits what can be done?

 

thanks!

I forgot to mention we are using the same login for the connections

[Joe Baranski]

Thanks for the responses, turns out the problem was much deeper than that.  The Monitor Daemon was stuck from the last panic.  Had to end up going in to command line and ps -ef | grep for anything tied to that site and kill it from there.

 

Thanks for the quick responses
