Sorry for reopen the thread, but I have new info that maybe can guide us to a solution.
In the documentation I've readed that cman uses trhee UDP ports. Assuming the default configuration:
MULTICAST_ADDR:5405
LOCAL_ADDR:5405
LOCAL_ADDR:5404
The problem is that in my cluster the 5404 port isn't up. Netstat shows the 5405 in both interfaces, but not the 5405 in the local interface. I've also ran tcpdump:
[root@node1]# tcpdump -i eth0 -nn -vv port 5405
tcpdump: listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes

As you can see, I have udp traffic between the two nodes (15.15.1.10 and 15.15.1.11) and between the node and the multicast address (239.192.240.165) but there is no traffic in the 5404 port. Is this normal? I mean, this port should be visible? What can lead to this?
Thank you in advance, Javi

Hi,
Thank you for the quick reply. I'm going to ask if we can upgrade to Red Hat 5.8.
Moreover, the machines don't have now performance problems (we are still in pre). But all is virtual, under VMWare, so a punctual problem in the VMWare infrastructure can affect us. Do you know some way to test network problems that could affect RHCS?
I tried tcpdump and iperf, but haven't seen anything.

I saw this happen with a bug in rhel 6.1 when the nodes were too slow.
I'm wondering if a) you have network problems somewhere or b) you have
insufficient performance on your nodes.
Usually it recovers on it's own, but I have seen it run away to the
point where I had to stop the cluster. That was on modest hardware in a
test environment. On all production machines I've seen, it recovered on
it's own.
