You've learned on of the three computer science facts you need to know about distributed systems, and I'm glad I could pass something on:
1. Consistent, Available, Distributed - pick any two
To some degree of Consistent, Available and Distributed. :-P
2. To completely guard against k failures where you don't know which one failed just by looking you need 2k+1 redundant copies
3. Fault tolerant systems must all agree on what time it is

Hi All,
Thanks for the replies. I started the ntp daemon and the warnings as well as the crashes seem to have gone. This is the first time I set up a cluster (of physical machines), and was unaware of the need to synchronize the clocks. Probably should have googled it more :). Pardon my ignorance.
Thanks Again,
Varun
