Subject: 2.4.27  network related Oops
Date: Fri, 03 Dec 2004 21:32:01 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <41B0CD41.1050105@domdv.de> (raw)

I do get an oops once about every one to two months (this time it took 
even 10 weeks), always during a nightly automated backup that is network 
load intensive via nfs and rmt as well as distributed data compression 
(memory intensive too due to a large streaming buffer). I never managed 
to catch the oops during several kernel versions until I took the time 
and installed netconsole. Now here's what I got from netconsole:

The system seems to properly panic as it does properly auto-reboot. No 
hardware problem, this oops did occur on other hardware, too. And I do 
get the oops (if I remember right) since at least 2.4.20 if not earlier. 
The problem is just that it occurs very rarely, so it seems to be hard 
to trigger.
Oh, the problem is not NIC specific, it happened with epic100 on 100MBit 
as well as it happens now with e1000 on GBit ethernet.
The system the Oops (now) happens on is a Opteron 144 based server with 
ecc memory, currently running completely in 32bit mode. The system 
doesn't run X.
