Can you send us the LDM configuration files (as attachments) for both of your
machines so that we can review your setups?

The other /etc/sysctl.conf configuration entry that is needed is
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter.
Here are the settings that we are using:
#
# Enable DVBS reception
#
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 2
#
# DVBS multicast fragment reassembly
#
net.ipv4.ipfrag_max_dist = 0
NB: if you find that you need to make a change, you will need to reboot
your machine for the change(s) to fully take effect (doing a
'sysctl -p' is _not_ sufficient).

Are you referring to the load average?
Are you running the 'ldmadmin addmetrics' action from the cron for your
LDM user? Here is what we run to gather system performance metrics:
#
# LDM-6.8.1+ metrics gathering
#
* * * * * bin/ldmadmin addmetrics > /dev/null
0 0 1 * * bin/ldmadmin newmetrics > /dev/null

Questions:
- is there anything relevant in the LDM log file?
- how are you determining that one machine is missing products while
the other is not
This may sound like a ridiculous question, but we need to ask since we
don't know anything about your setup.
Cheers,
Tom
