#300 Paramiko can't detect dead remote
Closed: Invalid Opened by mkrizek.

This is a tracking ticket of:

https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/issues/319
https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/issues/503
https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/pull/470
https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/pull/197

We partially worked around the issue in https://phab.qadevel.cloud.fedoraproject.org/D604. We still can't detect when remote is dead when running file operations over sftp. Another possibility is to look into [[ http://www.fabfile.org/ | fabric ]] or something else to replace paramiko itself.


@mkrizek, do you think that this still needs to block the disposable clients feature? It kinda sounds like there may not be a solution upstream for a while yet and AFAIK, it hasn't been a huge problem for us

Yeah, let's not block the disposable clients feature and keep this open.

We no longer use paramiko.
