Command execution in a V5 Cluster vs Non-Cluster environment

Hi,

I've compiled rpm for Tru64 UNIX V5.1B on a NON-Cluster server. The rpm
suite is installed in /opt/rpm which is a link to /usr/common/rpm-4.3.1.
The /usr/common is served by an NFS service residing on a
Tru64 UNIX V4.0F server.

The entire suite of commands work fine on ES40(3cpu 8g mem), DS20(2cpu, 4g
mem) and DS10(1cpu, 1g mem) servers running V5.1B PK#3. These servers are
standalone server and clustering is not installed.

However, the simplest of rpm commands (rpm --version) does not run on

a) one-node V5.1B cluster (ES40 - 4 cpu, 8g mem)
b) two-node V5.1B cluster (two AS4100s - 1 cpu, 1g mem)
c) three-node V5.1B cluster (three ES47s - 4 cpu, 8g mem)

I am stumped. I tried to capture what happens using truss. A fragment of
this is below. The read after the lseek does not happen at all.

Any suggestions/hints/solutions are appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
