Hi,

1. I have qfe3 which is up and running.
2. I have hostname.qfe3 and hosts properly configured. The qfe3 is alos my loghost.
3. I now need to make this server standby, so I disable the qfe3 by moving the hostname.qfe3 to hostname.qfe3.disabled.
4. I reboot the machine and login using CONSOLE.
5. I do su - emsadmin. This emsadmin is just a user on this machine.
6. It takes longer than usual for this user to login. How can I prevent this???

I cannot make the qfe3 up since the same IP address is assigned to the active server. Any suggestions how to prevent this? I suspect it's taking longer time because of SOME DNS issue? Am I correct? What causes it and how can I prevent it?

Thanks,
Kabeer
