Hi,
I have been experiencing occasional lockups with kernels 2.2.10 and (now) 2.2.12. In all the cases, the system locks hard -- none of the usual tricks work from the console. I am unable to log into the machine remotely, but for some odd reason the machine DOES respond to ping. The _only_ way to recover the machine is to push the reset button. Not a single thing is written to any of the system log files.
Does anyone have any suggestions for tracking down this problem? The machines in question are Dell Pentium II/450 servers with SCSI disks. In all cases the hangs have occurred while someone was working at the console in X-windows.
The systems are vanilla redhat 6 with all the relevant errata applied. The only other updates are to the kernel, with knfsd-1.4.7 patches installed and the userland knfsd-1.4.7 tools upgrades. This has happened under both 2.2.10-ac8 and now under 2.2.12.
Any suggestions appreciated!
thanks,
Todd Chauvin
