We were previously running 5.1 x86_64 and recently updated to 5.2 using yum. Under 5.1 we were having problems when running jobs using torque and the solution had been to add the following items to the files noted "* soft memlock unlimited" in /etc/security/limits.conf "session required pam_limits.so" in /etc/pam.d/{rsh,sshd} This changed the max locked memory setting in ulimit as follows: Before the change rsh nodeX ulimit -a still gives us max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 32 After the change rsh nodeX ulimit -a max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 16505400 The nodes have 16gb of memory. Now after the 5.2 updates those files are all the same and on most of the nodes we haven't yet rebooted them due to log running processes but a few nodes have been restarted and now that jobs are starting to be put on them we are back to max locked memory of 32k rather than 16gb. The error we are receiving on those jobs is : libibverbs: Warning: RLIMIT_MEMLOCK is 32768 bytes. This will severely limit memory registrations. libibverbs: Warning: RLIMIT_MEMLOCK is 32768 bytes. This will severely limit memory registrations.

I looked through the list of packages that were updated and the only one that I could see that was related was pam. ssh and rsh were not updated.
