Subj : Problem found with downlinks heavily polling

Hello All!

I have noticed that for downlinks polling more often than once per hour where
the echo packets extention have gone (for example) from :

0000fffc.su0   to  .su9
0000fffc.sua   to  .suz

The system can no longer pass packets to them as all extention letters are
used
up.

Here we have the above archives all zero but the system does not clean itself
up of empty archive packets after they have been sent so in the above example
with 36 archives all empty mbse has no where to go for this node and s/he just
looses any more that might arrive for them.

This is caused by every time a node polls any archives on hold are sent (so
far so good) with mbse zeroising the size of each that has been sent.

On the next poll it creates a new extention preset to zero and if by the next
poll it is still zero will still create a new extention and not just hold as
is.

The other factor would be having reached say .suz to start with suA thru suZ
but here I am guessing that some systems may well not be able to cope with the
upper case name ?

Another option is if mbse on reaching .xxz (where xx is the day) to delete all
older empty archives and then restart with .xx0.


Any one with ideas on this issue ?


And yes I have checked that in this instance for the above archives (0000fffc)
they all are created at time of polling by the node.
