We've recently seen much the same ..
AIX 4.3.3 RML02. cat file1 of 2631 bytes no problem, but if file2 has
2632 bytes then cat appears hangs. Similarly a tail -1000 of the same
two files does much the same.
This happens on an SP - from a remote PC via the CWS across TR &
Ethernet. However, try the same from the remote PC across the
switch or console session and all is ok. It's also fine doing
cat file2 >file3, or
awk '{print $0}' file2 or similar
I think it's something to do with the /etc/no setting extendednetstats -
at least, the nodes that exhibit this problem are those that have this
value set to 1. All the others (which have extendednetstats=0) are ok.
We haven't got much further so far (it's play time on Monday !),but is
the same true for you ?
Do note that merely typing
/etc/no -o extendedstats=0
doesn't necessaraily cure the problem - a reboot at least may be
necessary
/etc/rc.net has an entry for this no value - is it commented out or not
on your RS/6000 ?
