Thank You's to, Dr. Blinn,Thomas Sjolshagen, Paul Henderson, David Ross,
Dan Goetzman,
Bluejay Adametz, Bob Harris, Kevin Raubenoit and Vashi Manish.
My original question is included below.
In short, in a clustered environment, when you copy between two members,
the data is moved
across the interconnect. My interconnect was/is set to 10Mb/half
duplex, which is not supported.
It turns out there is a problem with the DS10, in that when you set the
second card (the interconnect)
to 100Mb/full, the cluster fails to form. I now have a warranty call in
for the DS10 to replace the motherboard.
Again thank you your responses and enlightenment on the subject.
Darren

I am still in the process of building a test/dev 5.1a cluster with the
following configuration
1. A DS10 and a alphaserver 1200 as the members.
2. Both systems has the lastest firmware
3. The interconnect is ip-based and is running at 10mb half duplex.
The problem I am having is, a copy of a 200Mb file on one member takes 3
secs, while on the second member, it can take upto 5 minutes.
It appears to be affected by who owns the drives, using cfsmgr -c to
determine. I have verified this my moving the ownership around.
Has anybody else seen this problem, and if so what steps do I need to
make to rectify the problem.
