I doubt there is a bandwidth issue but I'll add this to my checks. We have 288 nodes per server normally and they run fine with all servers up. The 76 number is just what we happened to have access to on an internal system. Question: What you mentioned above, and a feeling I have too personally is -- is the split-brain error actually a generic catch-all error for not being able to get access to a file? So when it says "split-brain" could it really mean any type of access error? Could it also be given when there is a IO timeout or something? I'm starting to break open the source code to look around but I think my head will explode before I understand it enough. I will still give it a shot. I have access to this system until later tonight. Then it goes away. We have duplicated it on another system that stays, but the machine internally is so contended for that I wouldn't get a time slot until later in the week anyway. Trying to make as much use of this "gift" machine as I can :) :) Thanks again for the replies so far.
