[j-nsp] Resource Temporarily Unavailable - Juniper MX

FWIW, some socket related changes were made in 10.4 (I believe)...  Bigger windows by default.  I haven't verified with Wireshark, but this is what I've heard.

Thanks - that actually makes a lot of sense ;)  We don't see any load to
speak of on our side but it does typically occur when a BGP session is reset
and we're sending out a full table to a customer...

Appreciate it,

Paul

More possibly it's caused by remote system load (or link congestion or
whatever other reason for remote system not able to receive updates fast
enough). Then, when socket buffer is full with unacknowledged data, your
system tries to send another update/keepalive message and it results in
write(2) syscall returning EAGAIN error (actually, not an error, just and
indication of 'no data sent, try again later'), which translates to
"Resource temporarily unavailable" message.

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. 
But, in practice, there is.
