## Symptoms

- Errors when trying to register a pnote:  

* [Expert@Member]# cphaprob -d fwd -t *NUM_OF_SEC* -s ok -p register  
  Failure detection mechanism is using drv pnotes (fwha_use_drv_pnotes = 1),  
  Pnote registration is disabled (fwd)  
  [Expert@Member]#  

* [Expert@Member]# cphaprob -f *FILE_NAME_WITH_PNOTES* register  
  Using drv_pnotes, only admin_down pnote can be loaded via conf file (*FILE_NAME_WITH_PNOTES* )  
  [Expert@Member]#

## Cause

Starting in R76, the new *process monitoring mechanism* was added for cluster monitoring of critical User Space processes.

This mechanism works only on Gaia / SecurePlatform OS and it is enabled by default.
