I believe that DLPI is something to do with Network layer two level error [ Data Link Protocol ... somrthing ]
Is there any problem with the lan connectivity for the server ? Mainly the hearbeat network ?
you can check using the command
linkloop -i
to check DLPI level connectivity for the interface on port ppa_no (which can be mapped using lanscan with the lan port you are using for connectivity) and mac_address is the address for that lan port (again can be understood from lanscan)

Are both the nodes down or the 3nd node is not able to join ?
What has changed since last running cluster?

Hi James,

The error occurs for two reasons:

1. All of the ports in the aggregate are coming in at different
speeds,

--AND--

2. The cluster (aggregate) is not forming with all ports.

To resolve the error, set autoport to full duplex on all ports
