Hi,
Can you explain those br changes? They could come from starting or stopping virtual machines for example. We had some problems with dieing disks lately. No smart errors, but terrably slow and then died the next day. The thing that showed there was something wrong was a noticeble increase in the system load.
You could setup a NC on port 7000 en try to flush some data to it from another node to see if there could be something wrong in a router/switch specific to that port.
But aside to that flushing the node and add it as a fresh node seems the most logical next step to me.
Met vriendelijke groet,
Micha Kersloot
