Description:
==========
RTserver reports the following error: Failure in reading from SPC 'protocol:node:port_id' {end of file}

Environment:
===========
ALL

Cause:
======
This error indicates that the RTserver was not able to read from the other end (client's side) of the connection because it encountered "an end of file",  in other words, the connection was closed from the other end by the client. Even though this is treated as an error it is not always catastrophic. It can occur if the client does a non-graceful disconnect from the RTserver. The RTserver will then report the error when it tries to read from or write to the lost connection.

Resolution:
=========
Investigate the RTprocess (client or server) side of the connection that closed the connection to determine cause.
