- We are running an LAVC with VMS 5.5-1, a dual VAX 4300 as bootservers and
- 45 satellites, including VS4000/60.
- Since the installation of VMS 5.5-1 and the adding of the VAX4000/60 we
- experience frequently following problem :
- The complete cluster hangs while at the bootmembers consoles a massive
- amount of cluster messages appear (see below)

- 07:40:17.96 Node BTMWS8 (csid 000100C5) lost connection to node BTMWB5

- BTMWT5 at 23-NOV-1992 07:40:26.20)
- 07:40:26.18 Node BTMWT5 (csid 000100AC) lost connection to node BTMWB5

- The bootmembers do not crash !!
- After shutting down the workstation causing the problem (in this case
- BTMWB5) everything becomes normal again. Sometimes it helps to kill an
- application on the workstation.
- Let me add that it is not always the same workstation.
-
- I assumed it could be related to the SCSCONNCNT parameter in SYSGEN, but
- after increasing it up to 130, the problem did not disappear. Do we have to
- adapt other cluster parameters ? Is the problem related to VMS 5.5-1 ?
