Getting " getRepMan unable to obtain ReplicationManager" Error

Question

Hi
          We had the following error message in one of our webconnect logs:
          =======================================
          <E> <RepMan> Unable to create secondary weblogic.rmi.RemoteException:
          getRepMan unable to obtain ReplicationManager
          for -5698840118587373426S159.167.118.88:[7005,7005,7002,7002,-1]
          - with nested exception:
          [[Root exception is weblogic.rjvm.PeerGoneException:
          JVM -5698840118587373426S159.167.118.88:[7005,7005,7002,7002,-1] is
          gone]javax.naming.Communicati
          onException]
          =========================================
          Some thing similar to this was supposed to be fixed in weblogic 4.5.1 SP8
          and we are currently on weblogic 4.5.1 SP14 .
          Can anyone please explain as to why this error may have occured?
          Thanks in advance

Answer 1

The exact scenario when this occured was
          1. We are running 10 WL servers on 5 SUN solaris maches (2 on each box)
          2. We stopped one of the 10 instances and restarted it
          3. The error was written to the log
          4. We stopped the WL instance with the error and re-started it
          5. The error did not re-occur
          Please let us know as to the possibvle causes of the same
          Thanks
