Hi,
I've got a computer running gentoo, on a clean install where i've got an odd problem :
after a while, the computer refuses to spawn processes anymore :
-/bin/bash: /bin/ps: Input/output error -/bin/bash: /usr/bin/w: Input/output error -/bin/bash: /bin/df: Input/output error -/bin/bash: /bin/mount: Input/output error
It happen's randomly, i've tried everything from changing the computer from running software raid ( scsi ) to running a hardware solution and reinstalling, I've run the memory through memtest as well as i've remounted the drives and i've tested the ram to make sure it was properly mounted.
The only thing running on this box is mysql, which runs perfectly at 7500 q/s ( running super smack ) now, i'm not sure if this is a linux kernel thing, or a gentoo thing, or a hardware thing.
I've checked and i'm not running out of file descriptors ( by looking in /proc/sys/fs/file-nr ) and i've increased the ammount in ( /proc/sys/fs/file-max ( if i member correctly ) ) by adding a 0 after the end of the value thus increasing it alot.
It's running XFS on the root partition with a single partition, dual xeon 2.66 with hyperthreading enabled, dual intel gbe and a adaptec 2120S AACraid card. Dual 36gb 10krpm scsi drives in raid1.
Does anyone have any ideas on what i can do, what i can test, if it's hardware ? software ?
guys ?
