remotely started program hangs

[Victor Engle]

I have a strange problem and I'm stuck. I'm using a scheduler called
UC4 to start programs/scripts etc on solaris systems. The scheduler
has something called and executor on the solaris host which exec's
programs as root on UC4's behalf. The issue is that with the new
version of the executor, some programs hang; like EMC's symmir for
example seems to get stuck in a loop and truss shows it looping on
this...

close(28610643)                                 Err#9 EBADF

I've written test programs to capture the environment of programs
started by the executor and I can't find anything different between
the new and old executors. Just looking for suggestions as to how to
go about troubleshooting this problem.

Thanks,
Vic
