I have currently a case running with NetApp concerning the same issue.
You should try to find out which server has the hanging connections.
Log in to the console (on the back of the filer) and do a netstat -an.
Grep on denstination port 22.
In my case it was the support console from netapp itself which caused the problem.
Netapp support will run a script on the support console to kill the sessions. (is a known bug in the support console's software)
The other only available option was rebooting the filer. Stopping and starting the secureadmin will not solve the problem.
Regrads,
Jef

Hi,
after running a script several times i am no longer able to log on to a filer using ssh. Nevertheless telnet still works.
In the eventlog of the filer i see some messages saying:
Exceeded the maximum allowed ssh sessions: 12
I do not know why i reached this limit (do i have to close the ssh sessions in the script?) and how can i reset this sessions? Is there a possibility to restart the sshd? I am a little bit affraid of restarting the sshd out of the blue.
Best Regards
Jochen
Hi,
the problem was very easy to find in the end. It were "only" a couple of sysstats a colleague was running against the filer.
Best Regards anyway....the netstat -an put me on the right track
