[gpfsug-discuss] waiting for exclusive use of connection for sending msg

Hi Brian

This boils down to a network contention issue – that you are maxing out the network resources and GPFS is waiting.

Now- digging deeper into why, that’s a larger issue. I’m still struggling with this myself. It takes a lot of digging into network stats, utilization, dropped packets, etc. It could be at the server/client or elsewhere in the network.

Bob (and all),

I see in this post that you were tracking down a problem I am currently seeing.  Lots of waiters in deadlock with "waiting for exclusive use of connection for sending msg".

Did you ever determine a fix / cause for that?   I see your previous comments below.  We are still on 4.2.0
