Hi Kenneth

Inside the onboard administrator do you see something abnormal in that blade?

Show interconnect info all

Show health

Already at the operating system level, is there a process that is writing a lot?

$monitor proc/topcpu/int=3
$monitor proc/topfault
$monitor dlock
$monitor rms

System disk space?  

What does swapfile and pagefile look like?

Has any file on the entire system disk reached its version limit?

Any error during boot?
$type sys$system:startup.log

And how about the network, any collision?
tcpip>netstat –i
Lancp>sh dev/count ewa0 (your card)

if the account file is defined and exist?
$sh log acco
$dir $1$xxx:[xxxxxxx]acc*.dat   (same place that log show)

some process in rwast state... example opcom?
I look forward to your comments
