How to resolve universalforwarder 8.1.3 aix disconnected error?

Splunk Enterprise 8.1.3
I installed splunkforwarder-8.1.3-63079c59e632-AIX-powerpc.

There was a problem with the universalforwarder connection being disconnected, so I restarted it.
However, even after restarting, the connection was lost after a certain period of time.

I am attaching the last 10 lines of splunkd log before disconnection.
Check the logs below for further confirmation.
