Problem with requests...

Hi all, I have a pretty big NFS server (2 Terabytes), running redhat linux with custom 2.4.20 kernel with XFS fs.

In the last 48 hours I have started getting the following error:

"kernel BUG at ll_rw_blk.c:1192!"

Jun  4 03:49:38 catchusers2 kernel:  kernel BUG at ll_rw_blk.c:1192!
Jun  4 03:49:38 catchusers2 kernel: invalid operand: 0000

I get two of three of these and then NFS locks up completely and my server shuts down.  This sounds like some kind of request queue filling up from what I can gather on the net.  I am desperate now!  Does anyone know what causes this exactly and if there is any remedy.  I would most appreciative if anyone can offer any suggestions.  I know my NFS server will go down a couple of more times today until I fix it.

Thanks,
Matt
