The list of known error symptoms and the associated responses are in the section Error symptoms, responses, and recoveries.

Enhanced Security Option

PSSP 3.4 provides the option of running your RS/6000 SP system with an enhanced level of security. This function removes the dependency PSSP has to internally issue rsh and rcp commands as a root user from a node. When this function, called Restricted Root Access (RRA), is enabled, PSSP does not automatically grant authorization for a root user to issue rsh and rcp commands from a node. If you enable this option, some PSSP components, such as IBM Virtual Shared Disk software, may not work as documented.
