SMP System 2.2.15 #2 locking
Could be a hardware problem. Check the errata/bios updates for your board or system. I had a similar problem and it turned out to be a hardware BUG with an Intel server board. It is funny the way they describe the bug -- it is a manufacturer problem that affects only one of 5 (or 6, I do not remember) PCI slots. If you have a card in that slot, the system locks up under loads randomly. They solve it with a BIOS upgrade by degrading PCI clocks on all of the slots!
The BIOS upgrade did solve my problem and the system uptime has been above 4 months now. Before the upgrade, the system crashed once each 24-48 hours.
