I know a company that had HP switches (forget the model) and they had issues
with running a LAVC.  Wiring the cluster traffic without the HP switches was
the solution in this case.  Try yours without these switches.

I presently have a cluster at 135 days of uptime and the only errors on PEA0
are from the initial configuration of the controller (2 errors).

If you can get your hands on a network sniffer, have a looksee at that is on
the network when you see these errors increase.
