    Hi,
    
    You got a timeout  on the nfs_mountd completion. Are you sure that the
    system you tried to relocate to is NFS configured, that /etc/hosts is
    still identical to the first member?
    
    Manu.

yup.. the hosts files are identical.  And the system is definitely nfs
configured exactly the same way as the other one

Anything else I can check?

Thanks,
Doreen

HELP!!

I made things much worse now.  I tried to delete the node that I couldn't
relocate to and it won't delete.  I have been sitting here for about 15 minutes.

Member to delete: zoe

Is this correct (y/n) [y]:
Deleting member 'zoe'...

When I try to run asemgr and it hangs on the node I am already running the
delete on

# asemgr

....


And if I try it on the node that I tried to delete I get

HELP.. what should I do.  Fortunately the services are still available.

Doreen

I finally got

May  7 13:55:59 zoe ASE: bigbird AseMgr Error: Unable to get DB.
May  7 14:00:12 zoe ASE: zoe AseMgr Error: Member change failed
May  7 14:00:12 zoe ASE: zoe AseMgr Error: Delete member failed.  Check syslog's
 daemon log for reason.


but then I tried to do a status of the services and it is not giving me back
anything but dots.

    Doreen,
    
    You definitely have a problem with nfs_mountd. I am at home and have
    not access to the script, but maybe you can check the contents of
    /etc/exports file for a .INCLUDE line and the subsequent files. The
    /var/ase/sbin/nfs_mountd is a script, so maybe you can place a "set -x"
    at the beginning to find what is happening by looking in the
    daemon.log?
    
    Manu.
    

panic over

The database files had different sizes and  dates so I copied the good one
over to the bad one and rebooted and everything is working now.  I can 
relocate services too.

thanks
