 |
|
I am having kernel panics/system crashes every week or so with my server. I doubt that the problem is hardware, as the server can compile FreeBSD over and over as long as I like, and can pass a full memtest86 test as well as run prime95 for an arbitrarily long period of time without error. Everything is server-class hardware and is tested in server environments.
The hardware config:- Motherboard: Tyan TigerMPX S2466 latest revision with AMD760MPX chipset
- CPU: ONE AMD AthlonXP 1800+ 0.13µ, other CPU socket is empty
- RAM: One module 1GB Corsair PC2100 registered ECC double-stacked RAM, certified for use with this motherboard in a server environment
- SCSI controller: Adaptec 29160 U160 64-bit PCI SCSI controller, using the default Adaptec kernel driver
- Drives: Seagate Cheetah X15-36lp (main boot drive). Other drives: Seagate Cheetah 10K.6 drive for mass storage, Maxtor Atlas 10K III for backup, Plextor PX-40TI CD-ROM, Ecrix VXA-1 backup tape drive.
- PS: Antec 480W power supply
Everything is very well cooled. The CPU is cooled with a Thermalright SK-6 with an 80mm fan (using an adapter), the drives have a dedicated 80mm fan and are not warm to the touch, and the area around the CPU has an 80mm fan sucking hot air from the CPU, as well as the PS (power supply) cooling fan.
Software:- Gentoo Linux (kept recent with portage)
- Most recent Gentoo kernel
- No X-windows software
Services running:- Qmail/SvcScan/Supervise/tcpserver/DNSCache
- SSH
- Vcron
- Syslog-NG
- DHCPd
- Monmotha (Firewall script)
- Samba
- Apache2

The system usually only crashes when under load for a while. For example, one crash happened in the middle of the night when the server was running SETI@Home. Another occurred just today when I was compiling the latest version of Apache via Portage.
If any more info is requested, please indicate so.
Thanks in advance.
