No locks since the last reboot last night at 1am. I upgraded to cpanel edge at that time. (knock knock on wood again).
Here's what I know:
Multiple images of RHEL from them have this issue.
Multiple iterations of hardware configs have this issue.
Kernel panics happen anytime, with varying frequency.
There's nothing logged that shows there's an issue
The console messages during a panic are varied
Average reboot times are an hour
No remote reboot ports are available
OS restores don't work - there's apparently difficulty in even fully loading the software without a lock
And uh, that's about it...

Mike from Rackshack wrote a perl script to monitor the activities of the server before it goes down. Has anyone of you tried it yet? It might give you some clues why the server goes down too often.

Aren't you guys glad you switched from unproven and unreliable versions of RedHat, such as 7.3-9, to the rock-hard and stable RHE?
Sorry, don't mean to poke fun -- it just means I'm signing up for progeny and keeping my 7.3 box!Jim Reardon - jim/amusive.com

Jim, the problem actually exists on 7.3, 8,9 etc. Theirs a 220+ thread on ev1servers forum about it. It's not just RHE

Not 2.6, 2.4.24 patched with the libata stuff to allow for the SATA drive to work...
Tried various versions of the kernel itself, no go.. including hand-rolled and redhat versions.
I'm going to rh 9, I think. It panic'd again and dropped again, blowing the edge version is running better out of the water.

Kudos to the night team - reboots have happened in about 5 minutes, which is a *huge* relief....

same problems
I have the exact same problems - it is not due to load at all the server will just die and respond only to pings. Servermatrix was trying to build me a new kernel but both versions did not work - one had a seg fault and the other also caused the machine to have other problems. They compiled binutils and that did not help. They tried 2.6.1 and did not get it to work.
The problem is definately a bad kernel -
I believe after reading through all these posts it's an IO problem where the kernel is severly flawed
http://forums.ev1servers.net/showthr...sponding+pings
I had another box die for no reason 5 minutes ago - reboot will not work because it will kernel panic on reboot - has to be manually restarted
I was told this is a global problem at servermatrix and not just me - I thought I was going crazy and it was just me - but it's not.
I am still awaiting a fix - I have had this problem for about a month now and it's really affecting my business in a bad way and I need it resolved. Since they have no solution if you have this problem please demand a fix - maybe we can get them to put more resources towards this

If it is a kernel fault for something which is not developed by SM, I am not sure what you could really do except to hopefully find a good kernel before too long.

kernel
I'm not blaming them- I am just trying to find a solution
If there is no solution to fix this kernel I have to ditch the boxes because like so many I can not afford to wait
What are others doing besides just waiting for their boxes to die?▄▀▄ Jeremy, CEO - Batcave Network

I'm working with management at theplanet/servermatrix right now, and they've been MOST helpful. I'll post a full synopsis once I get time, but it's been made very clear to me that servermatrix/theplanet will work with you to get these types of issues resolved.

Is it just a bad build image that Theplanet/servermatrix has or it is a real problem with the current RH Ent kernel which would affect any server using it ?

I would say, it's a bad build image that SM has.

Thanks for the clarification. From what I understand from the postings here, it seems to only affect the SMP build. Hope there is a quick resolution as I understand a number of people are affected by it.
