Gorak,

You could try increasing heartbeat_quantum to say 2000 (2 sec) and heartbeat_timeout to 20000 (20 sec). I'm not certain that will make any difference, but it is worth a try. I did have a quick look at the code and from what I think I understood, the quantum is taken into account in the delay processing. (I may be wrong!)

Regards,

Tim

Hmm....Tried almost everything on that document, but still getting the pm_tick 
delay panics atleast once every hour. It's becoming a real challenge to have 
the cluster up and running with this panic. I have a pretty good system with i7 
processor and 8gb of memory, but not sure why this issue is still happening. 
Any ideas?

Hi,

have a look at page 14/15 within the white paper
published quite some
time back at
http://blogs.oracle.com/TF/entry/new_white_paper_pract
icing_solaris

It shows you how to change syslog.conf to not catch
the pm_tick delay
messages - which makes syslogd and then the whole
virtual system very
unresponsive, which then might lead to the crash you
see.

rote:
I must really convey my sincere thanks to you for
pointing that out. That fixed the problem for me.
It's not enough to just turn global fencing off
during scinstall. We need to turn it off for
individual quorum disks too. I did it and that fixed
the problem. I just can't believe it fixed the
problem. I'd had been struggling with this for over a
week now. Thanks frueauf. Just to mention I still get
errors like "CMM: Issuing a NULL preempt failed on
quorum device...". I believe it's nothing to worry.

Now on to another issue, that's annoying too.
Anyone pls help me if you can. I have frequent
cluster panics because of pm_tick delays. I've set
the pm_tick threshold to the maximum limit allowed,
but i still get pm_tick panics. Any ideas on it?
