A colleague did execute "nsd-control force_transfer" yesterday, but since then we restarted nsd already a number of times. So why every 11 seconds (I'm going to assume in reality this is 10 seconds with some additional delay)?</div><div><br></div><div>With friendly regards,</div><div>Franky</div><div><span></span></div></body></html>
