Hi Chris, 

So, any tricks how to do this gracefully? I mean shooting the client while it might be in the middle of a 4GB upload does not sound very sane to me. Restarting the server has the same problem... How often does the HK try to get a lock? Like every 10 minutes or something? And any idea how much time there is between the client finishing and starting again?

Best,

Tom Albers
