[SCore-users] Problem starting multi-user

[Nick Birkett]

Hi we had a problem with one of our cluster nodes (comp3) so commented it out
of scorehosts.db.

I have restarted scoreboard and msgbserv.

Now when starting scored with sc_watch I get the following error: 


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

If I also comment comp5 out of scorehosts.db and try again it works (using 
comp0,1,2,4).

I have done an rpmtest (ping and point to point) between comp5 and all other
available hosts and this seems fine (10 us round trip).

I have encountered this problem before when removing hosts, but have not been
able to find what the problem is.

Anybody else seen this ?

Regards,

Nick
