CAUSE 2

Undetermined

RESOLUTION 1

get the output of the following commands\

getconf GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION
echo $LD_ASSUME_KERNEL

You will need to unset $LD_ASSUME_KERNEL. If fgalm is using a shared account, which needs $LD_ASSUME_KERNEL to be set, you will need to setup a separate account, where this variable is not set. Please also bear in mind, if the parameter is set globally unsetting the variable locally or creating a new account will not have any effect.

RESOLUTION 2

Please contact Quest R&D for further investigation on this issue.
