The OS paging problems are solved, thanks to various responses from a lot of folks. Please bear with me if this is a very trivial problem. I am an Apollo neophyte. Problem: -------- The DN4500 boots off the 2nd disk running SR10.1 (the 1st disk has SR10.2 loaded on it). During the first couple of minutes, I can see all the Apollos on the network by running 'lcnode'. I can also list/access all the files on another Apollo ("kings") by doing 'ls //kings'. This seems to work only for 2 or 3 tries. Around the 3rd or 4th try, everything freezes up (and the machine becomes virtually unusable). After what seems an eternity the 'ls //kings' command returns with output like: file XXXX not found file YYYY not found etc. etc. At this point doing an 'lcnode' also shows that, this node is not seeing any other Apollo node on the network. Or for that matter trying to 'rlogin' into this machine from any of our Suns (or vice-versa) doesn't work. Can somebody please point me as to what is wrong with this machine? If it helps, I used the following procedure to setup this machine: 1. invol'ed the 2nd disk using the SR10.2 invol 2. Installed Sr10.1 from AA on the 1st disk using the following commands: config -a AA -c configuration_file (to create config file) install -pvx -c configuration_file -s AA target (install the SR10.1) 3. The Master registry server is the DN10k ("kings") runing SR10.2 4. Loaded NFS 2.0 on this node to mount filesystems from our Suns. What am I overlooking? Any help is appreciated.
