    Finally we were able to fix the most critical issues that we were working on since the past few days.

    1. This was a network problem on the ILO of a chassis wherein when we were trying to install the Master server setup it used to stuck at tpext.exe and this was solved when we monitored the system very minutely where we had an eye on the network behavior and suddenly when the ping response for the master server went down the master server console started working fine.
    2. The above issue was resolved when we removed the teaming done between the NICs and after installation and configuration when we re-teamed the NICs the setup worked absolutely normal.
    3. The second issue was with the multihomed network that we had here with the media servers on AIX platform as they were unable to communicate to the master server whereas the master server was perfectly communicating with the media server. We checked our configuration several times but could not find the solution to the problem.
    4. This particular issue resolved when we made just one single entry in the bp.conf file for media server i.e “Preferred_Interface <master server ip> match <media server ip>” . This one single line resolved the problem and the media server started communicating with master server.
