Description

In Exasol 8.32.0 and later, EXA-to-EXA IMPORT/EXPORT operations may hang indefinitely in multi-node environments when parallel session token generation fails and the initial connection is established on a node other than node 0. Instead of returning the failure response to the client and aborting the operation, the server may fail to send the error reply, causing the client to wait indefinitely.

Workaround

Switch to Legacy Parallel Connection mode as described in:
CHANGELOG: Introducing Configurable Legacy Parallel Connection Mode for Exa-to-Exa Operation

Fix

The system reports the specific error that occurs during execution.
