Hi.

We tried 2.6.12.3-skas3-v8.2 on a host server. It kernel paniced (could not capture the panic) after about 90 minutes. I'd tried a 2.6.12 skasv8.2 a week or so back on another server and got the same result.

2.6.11.12-skas3-v8.2 has been running fine for 20 odd hours.

Has anyone had success with 2.6.12 skas v8.2? If so I'd be interested in a kernel .config. FWIW our hosts are dual xeons.

Regards, Peter

Peter,

I haven't tried 2.6.12. However, I'm now testing v8.2 with 2.6.13-rc4 on one of our development machines. It's been running for 16 hours without issue. This is a dual Opteron system running a 32-bit kernel. Have you tried a vanilla 2.6.12.3 kernel to determine if the issue is with SKAS?

Tony

Hi.
We tried 2.6.12.3-skas3-v8.2 on a host server. It kernel paniced (could not capture the panic) after about 90 minutes. I'd tried a 2.6.12 skasv8.2 a week or so back on another server and got the same result.

I had a similar problem a few weeks back when I attempted to run 2.6.12.1 and skas-2.6.12-rc4-v9-pre4. Crashed within 30 minutes or so, so I reverted back to 2.6.11.11 and skas-v8. I haven't had the time to narrow down the problem. It's on my to-do list for this week.

Incidentally, I've had kernel stability problems with the last dozen hosts I've placed online. These machines crash with no console output after a few days to a few weeks uptime. Haven't been able to track it down yet, but my hope is whatever it might be is fixed in more recent kernels. It seems like a hardware or CPU speed and kernel version issue, since the identical kernel runs flawlessly on other, slower hosts.

I'll post more details in a few days.

Peter, has anything changed on this issue? Had problems with 2.6.11 or success with 2.6.12/2.6.13?

I've not heard any news, plus I've difficulties in imagining what's wrong here. However, I'm going to think a bit more on this, and on an idea I just had.

Hi. We have not re-tried a skas kernel later than 2.6.11.
