This is probably an old HA bug. If you have a user one the primary but not on the secondary, and start a session using the primary, vsmserver on the secondary will give a traceback:

2009-05-07 13:32:47 DEBUG vsmserver: Handling connection from ('10.47.3.166', 1023)

It will still continue to run, though.
