Hi 3.3 folks,
Many thanks to SGI who (finally) solved my 3.3 diskless client
problems.  We have several 3.3 diskless clients up now, and now
I have a new question for anyone with 3.3 running who has seen
random processes sporadically die with the message in SYSLOG:

>Nov 11 13:16:24 daiju grcond[549]: CIO: WARNING:
>  Process cron (394) killed due to bad page read (errno:5)

This occurs on a 3.3 diskless client (PI) getting its root/share/swap
from a 3.3 server (4D-320-S).  I have seen cron, emacs, FrameMaker,
and a variety of other processes sporadically die on all my
diskless clients running from this server (it's our only 3.3 server).
When these errors occur, there is no indication of a problem on
the server -- at least, no messages appear in the SERVER's SYSLOG,
only the client's.

Any clues/fixes that would help me?  Many thanks in advance,
Cliff
