Subject: Probably 2.4 kernel or AIC7xxx module trouble
Date: Wed, 2 Jul 2003 11:44:55 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <00d901c340a8$810556c0$3300a8c0@Slepetys> (raw)

Hi linuxers,

I am having a strange halt troubles in my linux box after I installed the
2.4.20 kernel that didn't happen when I was running the 2.2 kernel.

The system works fine for hours or days, and then it halts. The keybord
halts, the remote acess halts, but I still can ping it !

I found some messages in this newsgroup with the same caracteristics, but it
was unsolved.

The system halts easily if I do a large I/O, like reindexing a database,
giving me some messages like: (scsi0:A:1:0): Locking max tag count at 128...

I have a Red Hat 9 distribution instaled in a Intel STL2 server board, with
2 Pentium III 933 Mhz and 512 Mb RAM, 2 scsi disks (18 Mb) and 2 IDE disks
(40 Mb), running in multiple RAID 1 and RAID 0 configurations.

The dmesg gives me the following data about the SCSI:

How I could know if this is a hardware problem or a kernel + module problem
?

Thanks
