Hi Matthew,

This phenomenon started after upgrade to 2.1.2. I downgraded the servers to 
2.1.1, now waiting to see if it makes a difference.

I installed the binary packages from Basho repo.

I also failed to ask two basic questions:

1.  did this failure start after your upgrade to 2.1.3, or happen prior to 
upgrade also?

2.  did you use a Basho package for Centos 7, or did you build from source code?

Matthew
