Hi,

I am in an R&D lab developing applications that work along with HACMP
on AIX. I had recently created an install package using lppbuild.
After installing my package (*.bff file), which as far I know, should
only copy my compiled binary executables to their proper location on
the system, the HACMP cluster (version 5.3 and 5.4) can no longer
verify an synchronize.

Once I install my files, I get this error when I run Extended
Verification and Synchronization through SMIT:

--------------------------
cldare: Node blue1 is not running the same version of HACMP as
node blue2. DARE functionality is supported between nodes running
the same version of HACMP only.
---------------------------

where blue1 and blue2 are my two HACMP cluster nodes.

After I get this error, my cluster becomes completely hosed and
unrecoverable, even if I uninstall my package.

Any reason why this is happening? How would my install package have
an effect cause an HACMP version mismatch? I'm not even sure what the
error message is trying to say.

Cheers
