Hi Jerry,

ctrl+\ is synonymous and skip over the hung startup script followed by executing the next one in the sequence.

Changing the hostname can create a number of problems if not done with careful planning. Does your server user DNS? Do the clients use DNS? Did the IP address change? Did the DNS server get updated with the new hostname? Does the server run NFS or CIFS/SAMBA? Does the server run email services?

Any of these questions will require a clear answer about how to accommodate a hostname change.

[Avinash20]

Please see that the hostname change is also made in /etc/hosts and DNS server is any !!

Does increasing pa_maxssiz_32bit help? Try 120 Mb.

[Jerry_109]

No, it still hung with the same message in rc.log. I changed the tunable as follows :

###############
# kctune -v pa_maxssiz_32bit
Tunable pa_maxssiz_32bit

Received following coredump when executing java1.3. :

Is this a tunable problem?
