Yes,

your monitor kicked in a failover cos your packages failed - seems to be due to a lack of space in your file table - review the kernel parameter nfile - look to increase it (i'd start by doubling it and see how you get on)

I can see few problems here.

We will take one step at a time. Syslog first.

syslog is complaining about file table. It is full. This is kernel parameter nfile-no. of open files system wide. What is your setting. Check kmtune -lq nfile

Check real time usage - sar -v 5 5
glance -t If it is hitting limit, you will have to increase it. It is not dynamic. You will have to rebuild kernel and reboot the system.

For SG, yuo have problems with custmomer defind functions. Your monitor script for POP3 has problems. Which is causing problem.

can you explain me the meaning of these error:
/etc/cmcluster/SMTP_pkg/SMTP_pkg.mon[5]: Cannot create a pipe.
/etc/cmcluster/SMTP_pkg/SMTP_pkg.cntl[815]: Cannot create a pipe.

thanks

everythings a file on UNIX, a pipe is a file too - so when it can't create a pipe, I'd hazard a guess that this is related to your full file table
