openssl usring prngd problem

Does anyone has the experience about this message:
/var/adm/syslog/syslog.log
prngd[2636]: write() in socket_write() failed: Broken pipe

I've not install HP-UX 11.11 Strong Random Number Generator, so there's no /dev/random.
openssl using prngd as a random generator.
Please advise what the problem caused this message ! how to fix it? Thanks.

=============================================
OpenSSL A.00.09.07l for HP-UX 11i v1

1. OpenSSL A.00.09.07l/A.00.09.07l.001 looks for the random number generator in the system in the following order:
/dev/urandom
/dev/random
/opt/openssl/prngd/prngd

2. If none of the three random number generators is available on the system, OpenSSL returns an error while executing cryptographic functions.
To prevent this situation, OpenSSL A.00.09.07l for HP-UX 11i v1 includes the /opt/openssl/prngd/prngd random number generator
