If you are experiencing only DataProtector problems on a cell server and no other applications on this cell server that are causing aborts, timeouts, poor performance and general overall issues, check to see if you are using Encrypted Communications Control (ECC). To find out, run the following on the cell server :
omnicc -encryption -status <cell_server_hostname>
If this is true, then be sure you have the following in the omnirc file on the cell server
OB2_DNSTIMEOUT=1
If this is not set, then set this and stop and start DataProtector and also stop and start the inet service for Windows. By setting this, it will stop the getaddrinfo() errors that occur in the inet and other places. This can be seen in the debug of the inet indicating the problem :
[ 60] [IpcGetHostInfoEx] error=11004, 2 retries left^M
[ 60] [IpcGetHostInfoEx] error=11004, 1 retries left^M
