remote shell command fails every third attempt.

Does anyone have any info why remote shell command would fail (timeout) every third attempt. This is only happens on our Tru64 cluster (v5.1B).
example : /usr/users/plat> rsh han ps -aef
han: Connection timed out

Is 'han' the cluster alias or a member name ?

Is the selection weigth on the alias =2 ?
Do all members have the same selw/selp/rpri
for that alias ?
'netstat -rn' from all members ...

Johan.

han was the target node. I will compare the setting you mentioned.

have a look into the troubleshooting section of the cluster admin guide.

Thanks all, we have a work around in place for now. To work around the issue, we removed out_alias from shell in etc/clua_services.
HP/Compaq/DEC wants us to setup tcpdump and look at the routing . .
