The usual cause of all those messages (not that it's usual!) is network problems. Often a one-way connection can cause it, eg the node can send messages but not receive them. There are pathological iptables rules that can make that happen too. It's hard to be specific without knowing more, but I would investigate the network connections, routers/switches and routing/iptables rules Chrissie -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
