Jeopardy is a condition where a node in the cluster has a problem connecting to other
nodes. In this situation, the link or disk heartbeat may be down, so a jeopardy warning
may be displayed. Specifically, this message appears when a node has only one remaining
link to the cluster and that link is a network link. This is considered a critical event
because the node may lose its only remaining connection to the network.
Caution Do not remove the communication links while shared storage is still connected.
Low Memory
Under heavy loads, software that manages heartbeat communication links may not be
able to allocate kernel memory. If this occurs, a node halts to avoid any chance of network
partitioning. Reduce the load on the node if this happens frequently.
A similar situation may occur if the values in the /etc/llttab files on all cluster nodes
are not correct or identical.
