Optistruct hang in PRPDDM randomly when using DDM on 2 hosts

If I run a model on 2 hosts in our cluster it randomly hangs in phase PRPDDM. I can only control on which subcluster and with which hardwareproperties the jobs run. If I run the same job just on 1 host it runs. I use always the same model in order to get optistruct on two hosts in ddm mode running.

some generic information about the model
