Description

please see evaluation in 6879232, essentially after adding 141444-09 to my cluster nodes, reboot hangs, as my cluster nodes has exhausted the default number of autopush structures.
When the clhbsndr module is loaded, it causes a lot more autopushes to occur than would otherwise happen on a non-clustered system.

So cluster needs to update /etc/system with
set nautopush=64

this has also been seen by one external customer so far, University of Queensland.

Enda

Work Around

edit /etc/system and add the line:

set nautopush=64

Did not found the issue you mentioned. Found the kernel memory increasing overtime on the smaller system with less memory like v120 512MB RAM. SUN was not able identify the cause yet.
