| |
Hi I have a 2 networks of Linux michines, with the total of 2 Linux servers 1 Linux router and 2 workstations. Servers are running 2.1.119 and 2.1.125 and they are rock solid, so is the router.
The problem is with the workstations. They are running the newest kernel (2.1.129). These machines are locking up on me at least once a day. I have to cold reboot them to regain the control. Machines don't respond to anything (all of the xterms and consoles are dead, I can type in them but nothing happes or it takes a really long time to execute any command, 1-2 minutes). There is planty of ram in the machines 128MB each and at least that much swap space on each workstation. The machines are not under heavy load, they are almost identical boxes and there is nothing unusual in their setup. Funny part is that as soon as I go back to 2.1.125 kernel everything works great. There is nothing in the system log and there are no oops-es or anything to point out what the problem could be.
I have noticed that if the box respond to me after couple of minutes the load is much higher than expected.
Thank you for any suggestions on how to fix the problem or even find more information on what is causing it.
Thanks fil
P.S.
I have tried testing different kernels and the problem appears with anything hewer that 2.1.125 kernel. If you need system config files, ask and I will email my configs.
