The Question is:

 
Help !
 
recevied message at console.
 
"%PEA0, PORT HAS CLOSED VIRTUAL CIRCUIT - REMOTE NODE ALPHA"
 
What is going on here ?
What is device PEA0 ?
 
Sh dev/ful pea0 ... shows Zero errors
 
Thank you for any light you can shead on this.
 
 

The Answer is :

 
  PE is the Cluster Port Emulator, an emulation of more traditional
  cluster communications port hardware, and this emulation permits
  communication with other cluster members via a network (typically
  Ethernet) connection.  Specifically, this message indicates that
  a cluster connection to node ALPHA via the PEA0: port has been
  shut down.  This could be due to a communications or connection
  failure, or due to node ALPHA shutting down, etc.
