Also, which version is this? Apologies if you mentioned it before but I naturally assume you have a reasonably recent version.

Are all these PV's from one or two IOCs? In this case I would look at the IOC.
>>>> Your PV Details page for this PV could have information
There should be lines here for "When did we request CA to make a connection to this PV?" and "Time elapsed since search request (s)". Does these look ok? Since you paused/resumed the PV; this should be the time you resumed the PV.
The "Currently DisconnectedPV's" report also has some additional information; this is not always helpful but if all your live but disconnected PV's are in the same CAJ context ID then a restart may be required. Might be useful to get a stack trace of all the threads; there might be some clue here on where the search thread for that context is stuck.
>> I take a look, but i can't see anything strange
I think after this we get into wireshark territory (aka I'm out of ideas). You'll need to see if we are issuing search requests properly and getting proper responses etc.

Murali

I found it:
<context class="com.cosylab.epics.caj.CAJContext">
<preemptive_callback>true</preemptive_callback>
<addr_list></addr_list>
<auto_addr_list>true</auto_addr_list>
<connection_timeout>30.0</connection_timeout>
<beacon_period>30.0</beacon_period>
<repeater_port>5065</repeater_port>
<server_port>5064</server_port>
<max_array_bytes>30.0</max_array_bytes>
<event_dispatcher
class="org.epics.archiverappliance.engine.epics.JCAEventDispatcherBasedOnPVName"/>
</context>
One thing look's strange, max_array_bytes...Looks a bit low, can be the
problem?

I will try it, but on next week.
The most strange thing is a lot of PV's work well, and a few has
problems (eventually disconnect)
Thank you again
