clu_trans_srv Cannot Be Interrupted (ID 6249685)

A bug in the 64-bit version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0 forces the clu_trans_srv process into an uninterruptible mode when performing asynchronous I/O. This means that kill -9 command does not work and the operating system must be rebooted.

Solution

Use a 32-bit version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3.0.
