Resolving Problems When the Server Hangs after Mounting Last Volume

To diagnose problems when the server stops processing after mounting the last volume, identify whether the following conditions exist:

• The server network board is not initializing when the server is started because the board is not installed or seated correctly.
• The server network board is not configured correctly.

To resolve problems when the server stops processing after mounting the last volume, perform the following actions or ensure that the following conditions exist:

• Check the network board configurations of the boards in the server and the settings shown on the server and make sure that the settings match.
• Make sure that all server and workstation network boards are seated properly and that cabling and connections are attached securely.
• Make sure that the terminators on cables have the right ohm rating and are installed correctly. The IBM* PC Cluster sends a broadcast message during initialization and then stops processing if the network is not cabled or terminated properly.
• Check the network boards in all workstations for correct node address settings.
