Yes, at least two abends are documented that are caused by Nessus scans. Check 
that your Novell servers have been patched:

Hello everybody,
I was doing a vulnerability assessment on a production using Nessus(Only 
non-dangerous plugins were enabled) and some of the Novell file servers went 
down. I was forced to stop the test. 

Have anyone experienced the Novell problem with Nessus? What can do to stop 
crashing these servers?  

Thanks in advance 

John
