Message-Id: d03887390608280324y785da1ej8d47317fde9c492@mail.gmail.com
1 My server crashed twice with same Oops info. It runs apache,mysql,nfs
2 (client only), it has more than 2GB swap partition (does not use it
3 very much), 2GB ram, disk is Raptor on SATA...
4 I have two clones of this machine (computers with same parts, system
5 is copied by RSYNC) and only one of them has these Oopses. I made
6 copies of gentoo like this:
7
8 1 -> 2 -> 3
9
10 ...and that one which crashed is "2", so if there was any error
11 durring rsync from 1->2 it should be repeted on "3", but "3" and "1"
12 works all the time without any crashes.
13
14 When it crushes some process' just stops - for example ps ax stopped
15 in the middle of list, ctrl+c did not helped, w (/bin/w) did not
16 showed anything, but dmesg worked and I could login thourgh ssh to try
17 another command.
18
19 The server must work all the time...
20
21 Does anybody have an idea what coused this Oops??
22 Below I added text from dmesg after this Oops. Thanks in advance for any help.
