To add further to below mail:

Once you record all information. Take a  backup of your system.
Shut down the server and rebuild the new server with information at your hand. 
In the end restore back up data to this node.

I had done this on MCS servers, but process will be almost same even if you have UCS, where you can simply create a new VM. But you need to gather and record all information before you start the rebuild. When you rebuild, all the information on server being rebuilt should be exactly same as per original server.

DO you think these problems are due to the Sub being down?  I think this server has been down for a few days.

>> I was wondering whether anyone has come across this before.  I have just started at a new company and they have a CUCM cluster running 8.5.1, they have one pub and two subs.  I downloaded RTMT and noticed that one of the subs was not accessible, I can ping the IP address, but cannot access it via SSH or URL, someone should be going to the site today to re-boot.  The day after, I could no longer access the Publisher, this server I can access via SSH, but cannot access via URL or RMTM, I stopped and started the Tomcat service and it came back for a while, but after a while i cannot access again.
