Login to the ILO and checked the integrated management log for errors? It does sound like a hardware issue. Forgot to reply on this one had a query from user since - fixed by simply reverting to previous kernel. No further problems. In conclude that its been caused by kernel upgrade and was unlikely to be hardware as both nodes were affected instantly after applying the upgrade.

[CentOS] Setting max limits in /etc/security/limits.conf
What we would like to do on a server running CENTOS 4.6 is to restrict max cpu time for most interactive users but ensure that processes for system users such as root special userids that provide services are kept as unlimited. The documentation for limits.conf is not very extensive but I think I am correct in assuming that resource limits specified in limits.conf only apply to processes that *login* to a system, rather than those kicked off at boot time as daemons? There does not seem to be any obvious way of specifying an unlimited value for a resource unlike the ulimit command ? Does anyone know a way of specifying unlimited in limits.conf ?
